My aim was never to be an American star; otherwise, I would have moved to Los Angeles.

You must understand, I don't have to be happy to be happy.

When I won the Oscar, there was something telling me 'this isn't the truth'. I had to get back to real work.

I like intensity. If it's too mellow, I feel like, bleah. I like intensity, because it's way of reaching spaces inside of you, and it's my need of knowledge, of knowing about myself regardless.

I don't like films giving me answers. I like films that are provoking me, that are making me feel not only being in an easy place.

What makes a person sexy is when he's not trying to be sexy.

Movies are open doors, and at every door, I change character and life.
