Quotes

Vera Chytilová

  • You don't really begin working creatively until you are at a point where you don't know.
  • We are all actors if we have the opportunity to come out of ourselves. We don't have to be precise in the way expected of professional actors, but we bring the truth of our lives into play.
  • [on collaboration with Miroslav Macháček]: "With him, you never knew what was going to happen the next minute, whether he was going to start chasing you around the table or whether he was going to obstinately refuse to talk for hours."
  • [on relationship with Miloš Kopecký] He was the man I wanted to start a family with and marry. But I knew he was a big womanizer and seducer. Our relationship was strained from the start because of that. We argued a lot. Once I threw a cup of milk at him in anger, once I threw him off his bike... We broke up when he left his diary at my place. After one visit to my place, he wrote in it this sentence: "Home at last, peace at last." That hurt me. He always told me how sorry he was that he had to go.
