But when it really happens I'm very fascinated, I'm waiting for the moment, because the moment where life abandons you and death steps in, that moment must be fantastic, no?

I want to feel good, I want to feel proud, I want to feel that I give someone enough and that I get enough.

And you must dare to do as many things as you dream of.

I'd also like to do a play. I've never done theater, and constantly changing and refining a performance is something I'd like to do, even though it may sound like work to some people - and it probably is work.

Even though things happen by accident, you also unconsciously choose things that help you.

I live for being with the people I love and to live as happily as possible.

It's true what people say - that actors are the closest thing there is to children. They play.

It should be only a part of my life, but it isn't. I have only one thing: my work.

Having children is what a woman is born for, really.

To be successful for a moment because of one movie doesn't mean anything.

It's so great to love somebody and, out of that, to make a child. So that's my goal.

You can learn so much from children, and you can give them so much.

Not that I want everything right now; but I do want everything.

I love oldies just kind of sweet, slinky, Fifties music. The slow stuff. And Billie Holiday.

But when it really happens I'm very fascinated, I'm waiting for the moment, because the moment where life abandons you and death steps in, that moment must be fantastic, no?

I have these visions of myself being thirty, thirty-five, forty having a family.

My parents found what I was interested in and encouraged me. They didn't put me in front of a television and buy lots of toys, the way some American parents do.

You play a part, and as soon as a movie is over and the camera stops, you go home and you're not really responsible for what you've done.

I love men who make me laugh.

The years go so fast. I mean, I just realized that at the end of the year I will be twenty-two, and I just turned twenty-one.

I wish I had had a great disappointment, a real one.

I want to do movies but not talk about them.

To know that one has never really tried - that is the only death.

For years the Trio did nothing but play for musicians and other hip people. We practically starved to death.

I don't sit in the corner waiting for death: death has to pursue me. I'm going strong. I hope to reach 100 and ask for an extension, just like my grandmother did.

On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done as easily lying down .

Because the Illinois death penalty system is arbitrary and capricious - and therefore immoral - I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death.

I'm Irish. I think about death all the time.

I don't fear death because I don't fear anything I don't understand. When I start to think about it, I order a massage and it goes away.

The most dire disaster in love is the death of imagination.

Death doesn't frighten me; now I can think peacefully of ending a long life.

Death comes for us all. Even for kings he comes.
