I couldn't do anything else, I enjoy it so much. But I find it tough.

I wasn't getting the responses I hoped for. You can't protect yourself from other judgments.

Wanting to do it was much more powerful than the fright.

I'm a very shy person towards my intimacy and private life.

The character is close to me, except that I haven't lived through those situations, so it's not completely me.

I hope I'll consider my next part, having learnt from this one.

You don't even need the director's judgement. It's too much.

I went on television and I wouldn't say a word; I feel so stupid when I watch them again.

I thought people would ask me really personal questions because I've shown more of myself, but it's a comedy, and people understand that it's a game we play.

I was putting all those pressures on myself.

You think that being a girl is degrading, but secretly, you'd love to know what it's like, wouldn't you?

It's more than a job. It's very personal, so when you're hurt, you're really hurt inside.

I couldn't do anything else, I enjoy it so much. But I find it tough.

In France, you're with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It's more like a family.

At the beginning it wasn't to do with the work, it was more the experience.

The English was really my mother, it was never me. Being the daughter of my father, I always felt very French.

The more sincere I could be, the better it would be for the film.

I used to hate being recognised.

There were always questions about my parents; I got so fed up with that.

It's nice that we have all these different films.

I hated seeing myself on screen. I was full of complexes. I hated my face for a very, very long time.

Girls can wear jeans, cut their hair short, wear shirts and boots, 'cause it's okay to be a boy, but for a boy to look like a girl is degrading.

When you love someone, you don't want them to suffer at all.

I'm desperate to work again. I've often had those periods, but two years was the longest.

Everyone gets the feeling that they know you and they know your life, and I felt really embarrassed by that.

Letting go of things and not being afraid of being ridiculous or over the top - I think that's the main thing for me to work on.

I still find it hard to push my own limits. I know where my limits are and that I always have to push myself.

The more you turn down things, the more difficult it becomes to feel that the next one will be right.

I found it very difficult to explain to someone why you did a film. It's not like having a conversation.

If I have been fortunate enough to have risen to a level in this business where people would actually listen to me, then I think I have a duty to convey all truths that I encounter.

I plan to eliminate the equity cap in investment, and I also plan large-scale deregulation to meet global standards.

Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human freedoms to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.

Diseases of the soul are more dangerous and more numerous than those of the body.

Sasha gets a raw deal from the press. She makes one mistake in her program and people rip her for not pulling it off when it counts. But she never falls apart. She never just completely folds and misses everything. Usually it's just one mistake.

There has got to be more to life than being a really, really, ridiculously good actor.

Fain would I climb, yet fear I to fall.

You worry about whether you are match-fit, coming back to the stand-up stage.

There are bound to be differences in any artistic collaboration with landscape elements, or theater, of lighting elements.

I could just have chips and salsa for dinner every day.

I believe in spirits, not ghosts.

I think anyone would want to see their favorite band in a small club over a large stadium.

Look at what you want to change, gather a few people who believe in it like you do, and start moving forward. It's important to remember that you don't always need a destination. Sometimes, you just have to make forward motion. And you absolutely can.

Dialogue in fiction is always written to be read in silence. The page is the limit. Dialogue on stage and on the screen is meant to be spoken. The voice is the limit.

When I was 4 or 5, I attended my father's concerts. He very often played Strauss waltzes as encores and I saw something happening with the audience.

I love playing with Jeff. That's something I never really say in the press, but he's my favorite bass player. I've played right next to him for 10 years.

I remember once I read a book on mental illness and there was a nurse that had gotten sick. Do you know what she died from? From worrying about the mental patients not being able to get their food. She became a mental patient.

We go by the lighthouse; paddle out. After we got out, we paddled way down to get the biggest peak.

Sure we're in limos. We're stars. How else is a star supposed to travel?

Who doesn't love a 'Lifetime' movie? I think that they know their audience so well.
