It's a terrible thing to go through life thinking that you have a rock on your side when you haven't.

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.

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.

I am not an angel and do not pretend to be. That is not one of my roles. But I am not a devil, either. I am a woman and a serious artist, and I would like so to be judged.

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

I will always be as difficult as necessary to achieve the best.

Love is so much better when you are not married.
