Being an actress is to be in tune with the fantasies of a man. What woman never dreamt of that?

My life is very exciting now. Nostalgia for what? It's like climbing a staircase. I'm on the top of the staircase, I look behind and see the steps. That's where I was. We're here right now. Tomorrow, we'll be someplace else. So why nostalgia?

Sometimes there is a great intimacy between women without any homosexuality. This is something that men are less likely to understand, because for them sensuality means sexual. It doesn't excite us to imagine two men together.

I think more and more people want to live alone. You can be a couple without being in each other's pockets. I don't see why you have to share the same bathroom.

To give and receive love, you have to be in touch with pain, you have to be capable of provoking it and feeling it.

When Tony was madly in love with me, his relationship with Vanessa Redgrave was ending.

I have always had the urge to open forbidden doors: with a curiosity and an obstinacy that verge on masochism.
