Beyond the beauty, the sex, the titillation, the surface, there is a human being. And that has to emerge.

Sometimes the directors were afraid of what they brought out of me.

Although for some people cinema means something superficial and glamorous, it is something else. I think it is the mirror of the world.

I don't like the idea of separating life and work. That notion seems dated and a bit alien to me.

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

For me it's not possible to forget, and I don't understand people who, when the love is ended, can bury the other person in hatred or oblivion. For me, a man I have loved becomes a kind of brother.

It's dangerous to assert oneself.
