“Let us say that I am a disillusioned socialist. To the point of becoming an anarchist. But because I have a conscience, I’m a moderate anarchist who doesn’t go about throwing bombs. I mean, I’ve experienced just about all the untruths there are in life. So what remains in the end? The family. Which is the final archetype - handed down from prehistory.
What else is there? Friendship. And that is all. I’m a pessimist by nature. With John Ford, people look out of the window with hope. Me, I show people who are scared to even open the door. And if they do, they tend to get a bullet right between the eyes. But that’s how it is.”
-Sergio Leone
