“Basically, I'm afraid of everything in life, except filmmaking.” — Lars von Trier Quote

“Basically, I'm afraid of everything in life, except filmmaking.”

“When I show a film at a festival, I am showing myself. Everything is at stake for me.”

“I'm happy that I'm alive. I feel like someone coming back from Vietnam, you know; I'm sure that later on I'll start killing people in a square somewhere, but right now, I just feel happy to be alive.”

“In this world there is always danger for those who are afraid of it.”

“I have no ambition whatsoever. I don't know whether that's because I'm afraid of losing, or of failure - of not being the best.”

“It is wisest to be impartial. If you have health, but are attached to it, you will always be afraid of losing it. And if you fear that loss, but become ill, you will suffer. Why not remain forever joyful in the Self?”
