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

It's never been my purpose to become an American icon, or more famous or richer.

I don't think I'm a perfect mother. I think I'm trying my best. I think it's complicated, it's difficult. I think I'm learning from my kids so much to be their mother. I don't think you're born a mother, I think you become a mother.

I'm not a dancer, so I have to find a movement that belongs to me. I dance within my limits and with my imagination.

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

Oh, I'll be forgotten too, don't worry.

The thing is that I never felt beautiful. I really never did. I think I can change my looks and be different things, but I've never thought of myself as this face.
