I think it's the same simple thing for everyone - to be happy, and have love in your life.

I'm not even aware of my success. Success is such an illusion.

I think acting is about forgetting yourself in order to give the best of yourself. It's passing through you more than you're creating it. You're not the flower, but the vase which holds the flower.

Attraction is beyond our will or ideas sometimes.

I want to know why I'm alive. I want to understand. It's like exploration; it's like someone being interested in a place and its history, digging into the earth and looking for it, searching - it's a passion.

Ive never thought of my characters as being sad. On the contrary, they are full of life. They didnt choose tragedy. Tragedy chose them.

I am not a great French woman. George Sand, Marguerite Duras and Simone de Beauvoir are great French women.
