I went to the Tokyo Film Festival in Japan because I love Japanese cinema.

I hate biographies which say, I was called to such and such an office, and he offered me so and so, and I got so and so money. I find that very tedious. The best biographies are written by other people.

Cinema will always have an important role to play in society.

I think it's the end of progress if you stand still and think of what you've done in the past. I keep on.

When I did small films like Lily and Buenos Vista, everyone thought my career would be ruined.

I went to Kerala in India, to learn Ayurveda, which was fantastic.

I regret not doing a film that I was offered with Clark Gable because the script was not good enough.

Fred Astaire was a more formal, trained dancer who loved waltzing and only danced with the girls.

The studio system collapsed only when Elizabeth Taylor charged $1 million for Cleopatra.

It's very difficult to marry into another civilization.

I seemed to belong to three countries: I had an apartment in Paris, a house in Hollywood, and when I married British theater director Peter Hall, I moved to London.

It's the first film that I made where the director was not present under the camera, and it threw me.

We were all ruled by the studio system. I signed a contract for seven years.

I had two children. I had a nanny to manage my kids.

The most important thing is to remain active and to love what you are doing.

You have actresses like Meryl Streep and Julia Roberts, who have roles specially written for them.

I was trying to be very at ease in this arrogant person, and very worldly, but something human came into the part. I hate to say that. I wanted to be totally worldly.

I know a lot of Americans in Paris who have married Frenchmen. They keep bringing up their experience, the clash of civilizations, the clash of personalities.

There were many good actresses in my time like Jane Powell and Debbie Reynolds, but I was the only dancer.

James Ivory comes close to the actors for the first rehearsal. He more or less lets you direct yourself and then will only correct you if he finds it incorrect.

I got as little as a $75 a week when I started.

The American is wholeheartedly for love and romance at any cost.

No matter what you do, your person comes through. You can't completely change yourself on the screen. I had in mind someone colder and more in control, but I couldn't do it. This human note just crept in and maybe it's better.

I toured the Middle Eastern countries with the ballet.

I longed to break out of the system and do different roles.

The essential elements of giving are power and love - activity and affection - and the consciousness of the race testifies that in the high and appropriate exercise of these is a blessedness greater than any other.

My mother keeps things in perspective for me. She makes me realize that the acting I do and love is no more important than what one of my brothers does-he works in a shoe repair shop. If my career ever tapers off, I'll go to college.

Actors love mental disorders, dialects, and corsets. Give them one of the three and they're happy.

My goal is, of course, for this show to do well, and I would love it if people liked it.

I love living on that stage. Without that, I'd die.

I love my DSL, but I love my WiFi more. And I probably get on the Internet 40 percent to 50 percent more because of the combination of those technologies.

But I love New York. I used to set my alarm clock when I was there, and get up at 4am and get a coffee, just because I could.

I love children and I love men, but I can't commit to either for the rest of my life.

Sitting at home the way I do, I'd just love the hear from people. It'd be a great help in passing the time.

There is love there. And then there's times when I can't even stomach Simon. You don't have to sit next to him. That's all I have to say.

When I see children, I see the face of God. That's why I love them so much. That's what I see.

One can love a child, perhaps, more deeply than one can love another adult, but it is rash to assume that the child feels any love in return.

I love pasta with the homemade marinara sauce I had as a kid.
