Show business is what I do, not what I am.

Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.

I was not interested in what I could bring to myself by being an actress, but in what I could bring out of myself.

I am against all war.

At this moment, everyone is in crisis, not only in Italy but all over Europe. Only in America do they make films that are successful all over the world. In Europe, production is quite poor. We have three or four or five films, which is not enough.

Sometimes when you involve yourself in so many things, you can't do any of them well - and I like to do everything perfectly.

I am lucky. I had a very beautiful mother.
