I choose my roles carefully.

Marriage is obsolete and a trap.

Men are good but women are magic.

I am frivolous. Then I feel guilty.

I'm lucky; people write scripts for me.

The paparazzi are nothing but dogs of war.

In America you need a bodyguard to go out.

I did important films when I was very young.

Love is suffering. One side always loves more.

I love to do very long and complicated scenes.

Polanski was very precise. I think he still is.

The story is more important to me than the part.

You should put scent where you like to be kissed.

But I never gave up personal things to work, never.

I have no physical courage, I've asked for a double.

People who know me know I'm strong, but I'm vulnerable.

You can tell how nervous I am by how fast I am talking!

It's very difficult for me to speak about being an actor.

I don't see any reason for marriage when there is divorce.

Being a film actor is very different from a theatre actor.

I don't enjoy. I suffer from enjoying. It's very Christian.

Actors have to be there and do the work, and that's enough.

A lot of actors don't like to see how they've done every day.

Sometimes it's more difficult to do very simple, low-key films.

You can express a lot of things, a lot of action without speaking.

I get irritated, nervous, very tense or stressed, but never bored.

To have a public life, you still have the right to a private life.

Bjork is a very original, interesting person. I like her very much.

At a certain age, you have to choose between your face and your ass.

I have been involved in some films other actresses would not have done.

I'm so popular it's scary sometimes. I suppose I'm just everybody's type.

Opportunities are often things you haven't noticed the first time around.

I love to not work. I like to travel. I work maybe half the year, no more.

I wouldn't say no to being in a film with Jude Law. I love English actors.

Sex is a big question mark. It is something people will talk about forever.

I think anything that has to do with sexuality makes people very interested.

On Belle de Jour, the producer was very protective. It was very hard for me.

I can be very critical on myself and on other people; I can be very demanding.

You're better off not preparing, because what you prepare will always be wrong.

Directors have to push me. I have to be pushed up. Not all the time, but often.

People expect a lot more from someone they think looks interesting. It's a burden.

I'm not an admirer of action movies. I just think, Oh my God, it must be so tiring.

I like being famous when it's convenient for me and completely anonymous when it's not.

I would love to work with Robert De Niro or Al Pacino. I think they're wonderful actors.

I know who I am, how I was. I don't want to know how I will be because nobody knows that.

It has been very erotic and provocative for people to wonder about my feelings for women.

When I first see the dailies, I look only at myself, but then you start to see the scene.

Even if a woman is abused a very long time ago, it comes out in her life in a negative way.

Being an actor means being an instrument for someone else. I want to give myself completely.

You suffer as an actor. It's difficult to be an actor and live a good life, especially today.
