Women are a finer filter of reality. They can sniff things.

Everyone has understood me in his own way. But I would have to understand myself first in order to judge - and so far, I haven't.

I can't imagine love without a sexual charge.

People are always misquoting me.

Do you really think a man must be strong, masculine, dominating, and the woman frail, obedient and sensitive? This is a conventional idea. Reality is quite different.

That love is a conflict seems to me obvious and natural. There isn't a single worthwhile work in world literature based on love that is only about the conquest of happiness, the effort to arrive at what we call love. It's the struggle that has always interested those who produce works of art - literature, cinema or poetry.

Actors are always a little high at work. Acting is their drug. So when you put the brakes on, they're naturally a little disappointed.
