I cannot imagine having a physical relationship with a woman. I have not done that. But I really love women.

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

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

I think the clothes in Belle de Jour are very important to the style of the film. Even today, it is still timeless.

It's always difficult to play a scene of physical violence because you're always afraid that you don't know your own strength and might hurt someone.

A woman has to be intelligent, have charm, a sense of humor, and be kind. It's the same qualities I require from a man.

Love is suffering. One side always loves more.

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

Cinema is still a very young art form with extraordinary techniques and very impressive special effects. But sometimes it seems the soul has been taken out of things.

I like all these little animals that run and eat and hide all the time. I like their faces, They seem to be scared and curious at the same time.

That's what I like about film-it can be bizarre, classic, normal, romantic. Cinema is to me the most versatile thing.

Not being a man of means, I knew that if I did not stay sober enough to earn money, I would run out of liquor.

I had a little bit of resistance to the idea of taking energy away from my work, and the baby comes along and, lo and behold, that's exactly what happens.

A general and a bit of shooting makes you forget your troubles ... it takes your mind off the cost of living.

I have always felt that whatever the divine Providence permitted to occur, I was not too proud to report.

Acting makes me feel broke again, it makes me feel unaccomplished.

I was actually really happy with where my game was at. That's probably the most disappointing aspect.

Grunge, man, that was incredible. It was dangerous. It was not verse/chorus. Songs could be short, long, a lark, majestic. You were constantly being surprised.

Yer the only friend I got, pigpiss... Ain't that the biggest tragedy you ever heard?

No diety will save us; we must save ourselves.

There's an ecstasy about doing something really good on film: the composition of a shot, the drama within the shot, the texture... It's palpable.
