Vadim changed my mind about acting. Vadim was the only man who was certain I had something special to offer.

Film-making was not at all what I had expected.

My soul is not my own any more. I cannot live like I want to. I am going to give up films.

I have no regrets. If I wanted to keep acting, I would have never left the cinema.

Unfortunately these are not isolated incidents, and the people of Reunion are the first to be horrified by this despicable barbarity which mars the image of their island.

I think animals help us live; they've helped me live. It was only when I began to devote myself to protecting animals that I blossomed completely. Taking care of them, looking out for them, has given my life true meaning, a meaning I hope future generations can experience.

I never do anything by chance.
