For me, acting is like a therapy. I can express myself fully when I am acting and have blood in my veins. Even when I'm not working, I'm always living in my own world, imagining characters.

I'm worried because of my mother, she's going to see my performance and she's quite hard. She's going to see me naked. And my Dad, woah. Yeah, they're going to see me like a woman, you know?

I've always felt like I'm from another planet.

It's very flattering to be remembered as a Bond girl with brains and not just for looking good in a bikini. I was a fan of Sophie Marceau in 'The World Is Not Enough.' I think her performance was very underrated.

Success is very ephemeral. You depend entirely on the desire of others, which makes it difficult to relax.

Life's too short to wear high heels.

I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.
