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.

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

The cliche is that life is a mountain. You go up, reach the top and then go down.

I know there were things emanating from me. I was not aware of what attracted all these directors to 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've never worried about age.

During rehearsals I am confronted by things very mysterious. I have terrific fights with inner demons, and it's more painful than it ever was.
