We are going to the moon that is not very far. Man has so much farther to go within himself.

I wanted to remember in order to be able to return.

I find that life, day by day, is composed of at least one joy, one problem and one sorrow. Then there are the smaller ingredients: you always learn something, whether useful or harmful - that is difficult to analyze until later; you always give something; you alwayou always grow a little in one direction or another.

It's all right for a woman to be, above all, human. I am a woman first of all.

I reserve the right to love many different people at once, and to change my prince often.

For too many centuries women have been being muses to artists. I wanted to be the muse, I wanted to be the wife of the artist, but I was really trying to avoid the final issue — that I had to do the job myself.

I will always be the virgin-prostitute, the perverse angel, the two-faced sinister and saintly woman.
