If I find a film dull, I find it infinitely more entertaining to watch the scratches.

Animation is not the art of drawings that move but the art of movements that are drawn.

I have tried to preserve in my relationship to the film the same closeness and intimacy that exists between a painter and his canvas.

Well rounded forms gives smooth sounds; sharper or angular forms give harder and harsher sounds.

The good moral work of art should have all the qualities that a good amoral work of art should have, such as formal unity, balance, contrast, and a sensitivity to the material out of which it is made.

Take a film of Jacques Tati like Mon Oncle which has something quite new - for me, unique - in it.
