I think that one can have luck if one tries to create an atmosphere of spontaneity.

I never make moral judgments; I'm not qualified to do so. I am not a censor, a priest, or a politician.

Every time I start a picture ... I feel the same fear, the same self-doubts . . . and I have only one source on which I can draw, because it comes from within me.

We must get beyond passions, like a great work of art. In such miraculous harmony. We should learn to love each other so much to live outside of time... detached.

There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the passion of life.

Regrets are a waste of time. They're the past crippling you in the present.

There is no such thing as a good paparazzo. A good paparazzo, that's a paparazzo who has had his camera broken. In fact, they are bandits, thieves of photography. (Statement after photographs were published showing Jackie Onassis sunbathing nude.)
