Above all, I dislike vulgarity.

People always think I’m dainty when they meet me, but I’m really not. I’m very German – we’re not made out of sugar.

I don't have to work just to work anymore. More interesting parts come my way, so I can afford to say, 'I don't want to make that.'

You have to have the passion. I could not live if I wasn't an actor. If you're just in it for beautiful dresses and movie stars, then I think you should not be an actor.

Yeah, to me, acting is very therapeutic. I get out a lot of anger and frustration.

I feel as if sometimes women can't deal with what's going on and they have no one around who actually understands.

In Paris, I rent a bike in the street and cycle around, and in L.A. I live up in the hills so I go hiking a lot.
