I got what I have now through knowing the right time to tell terrible people when to go to hell.

I hate biographies which say, I was called to such and such an office, and he offered me so and so, and I got so and so money. I find that very tedious. The best biographies are written by other people.

I longed to break out of the system and do different roles.

I know a lot of Americans in Paris who have married Frenchmen. They keep bringing up their experience, the clash of civilizations, the clash of personalities.

When I did small films like Lily and Buenos Vista, everyone thought my career would be ruined.

Cinema will always have an important role to play in society.

I went to Kerala in India, to learn Ayurveda, which was fantastic.
