On Belle de Jour, the producer was very protective. It was very hard for me.

I admire directors so much, I find them incredible: they manage such a huge number of people of different characters, think of the money involved.

It is very fashionable for good-looking ladies to say how hard it is to be beautiful, but that's not true. There are times when itdepresses and bothers me to see just how easy things are made for a beautiful woman.

I am frivolous. Then I feel guilty.

The paparazzi are nothing but dogs of war.

I know who I am, how I was. I don't want to know how I will be because nobody knows that.

The only human being I could tell everything was my sister Françoise. She and I were so diametrically different; put together we would have been a fantastic woman.
