Alejandro Jodorowsky quotes about
My father was a monster. A monster! I cut with my family when I was 23 and I never see them again.
I don't live in France; I live in myself.
You can’t have a masterpiece without madness,
I was raping Frank Herbert but with love.
The first thing I didn't understand was my life. It's a mystery. And today I don't understand economy or politics. I don't know why politics or economy are destroying the world, but I will understand after understanding.
The planet is ill, everyone knows that. But I need to be optimistic, otherwise I would just be adding to the negativity. So every night I come on Madrid TV and read a piece of good news.
