“I think in a sense seeing how films have changed me and seeing how fiction moves me more than facts in many ways, and I think that I can talk for many people that fiction moves us more than real life, it certainly helps us to set forth on this a journey of a utopia, which can never be achieved.” PeopleThinkingWayI CanRealFactsHelpingFilmMovingFictionSeeingJourneyChangedReal LifeUtopia Author:Gael Garcia Bernal

“I think since I was in drama school, I wanted to direct in the theatre. When you are an actor, you just have to open your eyes and you start to learn a lot about how to survive on set and what's important and how to tell a story. Directing is really about putting yourself out there, to be slapped in a way. You know that in the kitchen, you're gonna get burned. It's very scary but very exciting as well. If you have something to say, you have nothing to lose and you probably learn from the experience.” ThinkingImportantEyeSchoolDramaDirectExcitingScaryTheatreKitchen Author:Gael Garcia Bernal
“We think that democracy can change a lot of things, but we're being fooled, because democracy is not the election. We've been taught that democracy is having elections. And it isn't. Elections are the most horrendous aspect of democracy. It's the most mundane, trivial, disappointing, dirty aspect.” ThinkingDemocracyTaughtAspectElectionDirtyMundaneFooledNaughtyDisappointing Author:Gael Garcia Bernal

The Pacific coast has a huge array of seafood.” PeopleThinkingSeaHugeSizeDietsCoastMexicanRicePacificSeafoodTomatoesPeppersDialectStaplesMexican Food Author:Gael Garcia Bernal
“I think the water dictates how food will taste in a country. In England the apples taste unlike apples grown in any other place. England is an island, there's a lot of salt in the air and in the water. I think that has something to do with it.” ThinkingCountryWaterAirTasteEnglandIslandsApplesSalt Author:Gael Garcia Bernal
