I go to the movies a lot, and I regret when I see some actor that I used to like, to find them offering no more surprises.

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.

Self-courage, Self-confidence, Self-will!

Self-confidence is the greatest strength.

The game seemed to be speeding up, building on itself. Right around the deaths of Tess and Selena, I’d met the Sun.Were we spinning to an end?

The only way to live is to risk being unhappy...and I'd rather be unhappy with the person I loved than as contented as a cat by the fire.

Change is an easy panacea. It takes character to stay in one place and be happy there.

My father was a tomato farmer. There is the phrase that says he or she worked their fingers to the bone, well, that's my dad. And he was a very good man.

I've been very lucky. Directors I've worked with have been very amenable to changes.

You can't arrest me, I'm a rockstar.

I started to study, because I knew I had to learn a lot about myself as an actor; you can't act the same as you did as a child.
