I don't believe in acting. I think that people in life act, but when you are on the stage, or in my case also on screen, you have to be true.

I am sensitive to life, and somehow acting comes to me. I cant explain it.

For my second and third pictures I won Academy Awards. Nothing worse could have happened to me.

Happiness lies in moments, and while you have it you're not even aware, only afterwards do you know you were happy.

I have never had a current state of mind. My mind changes a great deal. I am very affected by any sorrow or sad thing, and I am very affected by joy and beauty.

I am an actress. I am not a movie star.

The best imitation in the world is not half as good as a poor original.
