I've never wanted to become a politician, an interior decorator, I've never wanted to speculate and make a load of money. I just wanted this.

Unless I try, I'm never really going to be at ease with myself.

In my youth I dreamed of being an illustrator.

At this point, it's either for fun or it's for money. I don't take movies that I don't really like.

It wasn't until I saw James Dean that I began to think that maybe I could actually do this. Movies didn't have to be just this fantasy with this impossibly handsome guy.

My star was kind of fading towards the end of the '60s and suddenly I got this call from Fellini, who just appeared to kind of love me!

As a boy I believed I could make myself invisible. I'm not sure that I ever could, but I certainly had the ability to pass unnoticed.
