If only every man who sees my films did not get the impression he can make love to me, I would be a lot happier.

Success is unpredictable and fragile.

The myth of Bardot is finished, but Brigitte is me.

My wild and free side unsettled some, and unwedged others.

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

If I upset some notions and went against established rules, that wasn't part of what I wanted to do. It wasn't my goal.

I'm a girl from a good family who was very well brought up. One day I turned my back on it all and became a bohemian.
