Rainer W Fassbinder quotes
" All in all, I find that women behave just as despicably as men do, and I try to illustrate the reasons for this: namely, that we have been led astray by our upbringing and by the society we live in. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" And I don't believe that melodramatic feelings are laughable - they should be taken absolutely seriously. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" I'd like to be for cinema what Shakespeare was for theatre, Marx for politics and Freud for psychology: someone after whom nothing is as it used to be. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" It isn't easy to accept that suffering can also be beautiful... it's difficult. It's something you can only understand if you dig deeply into yourself. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" Since I'm not a second Marx or Freud who can offer people alternatives, I have to let them keep their own wrong feelings. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" Sirk told me what the studio bosses in Hollywood told him: a film has to to over in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, in Okinawa, and in Chicago - just try to think what the common denominator might be for people in all those places. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" So certainly, if we can tell evil stories to make people sick, we can also tell good myths that make them well. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" The best thing I can think of would be to create a union between something as beautiful and powerful and wonderful as Hollywood films and a criticism of the status quo. That's my dream, to make such a German film. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" The Jews have never been ashamed of being Jews, whereas homosexuals have been stupid enough to be ashamed of their homosexuality. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" The more real things get, the more like myths they become. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" There have always been myths, but the myths of earlier times were, I'm convinced, bad ones, because they made people sick. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" We are aware of the City of Frankfurt's social and political traditions, we are familiar with the TAT and the Volksbahne (people's theatre) organisations. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" We intend to mobilise that knowledge and our aspirations towards producing a people's theatre in the broadest sense of the term at the TAT. "

Rainer W Fassbinder
" Yes, actually ever since I saw his films and tried to write about them, Sirk's been in everything I've done. Not Sirk himself, but what I've learned from his work. "
