The creation of a single world comes from a huge number of fragments and chaos.

一个完整世界的建构取材于无数的碎片和混沌。

We depict hatred, but it is to depict that there are more important things. We depict a curse, to depict the joy of liberation.

我们描写仇恨是为了烘托其他更为重要的事物,我们刻画诅咒是为了铺垫自由解放的欢愉.

I would like to make a film to tell children \"it\'s good to be alive\".

我想要拍一部电影让孩子们知道“生活有多美好” 

— 宫崎骏 Hayao Miyazaki

The wide screen reminds me of a roll of toilet paper.

宽银幕让我想起一卷厕纸。

我要表现的是,透过子女的成长来窥探日本家族制度瓦解的过程。

电影不过是披着草包,站在桥下拉客的妓女。

— 小津安二郎 Yasujiro Ozu
