Truffaut loved actresses, and he was very intense. All the actresses I knew wanted to do a film with him.

I've always been able to decide what was more important at different points in my life, but I never gave up personal things to work, never.

I had mice that I kept as pets when I was very young, and I've always liked the way they look. Even rats. I'm not scared of them.

I always try to keep that feeling of being on the edge. I'm afraid of knowing too well and seeming mechanical.

I have been involved in some films other actresses would not have done.

You're better off not preparing, because what you prepare will always be wrong.

Actors have to be there and do the work, and that's enough.
