I don't need the money, dear. I work for art.

Real friends are very special, but you have to be careful because sometimes you have a friend and you think they are made of rock, then suddenly you realise they're only made of sand.

When the curtain rises, the only thing that speaks is courage.

ART is domination. It's making people think that for that precise moment in time there is only one way, one voice. Yours.

I prepare myself for rehearsals like I would for marriage.

My poor sight gives me an advantage. I can't see the people in the audience who are scratching their heads while I am lost in my role and giving everything I have to the drama.

I was always too mature for my age - and not very happy. I had no young friends. I wish I could go back to those days. If I could only live it all again, how I would play and enjoy other girls. What a fool I was.
