What I do is I come in the morning and get involved in the character, but I'm always very pleased to leave it at night and have my life.

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.

O world, that's you!You are but a widened place in the riverWhere Life looks down and we rejoice for herMirrored in us, and so we dreamAnd turn away

The Buddhist concept is that it takes 48 days to get near this state [of death]. So it's a slow process, moving into, not a permanent death, but the world of the dead.

Creativity is not to be rudely shoved into being

In the case of Enron, we balance our positions all the time.

Madison lived in his head and public speaking did not come naturally to him.

however, i can read hers- she'll be waiting to ambush you in class.
