"I've never been religious unless you can count a very ridiculous religious crisis at fourteen years of age, I was still very innocent. Then from one day to the next, I didn't believe anymore."[2]

From his 1968 New York Times interview:
"I suffer from the nostalgia of a peasant-type religion, and that is why I am on the side of the servant. But I do not believe in a metaphysical god.

The motivation that unites all of my films is to give back to reality its original sacred significance." [3]
