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

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.

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.

I used to dance when I was younger - ballet and modern dance.

Water is always a support or a healing thing apart from, you know, love or peace of mind.

Water for me is so essential, like swimming.

I wish I played an instrument, but I could never decide which one, and I ended up playing nothing.

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.

Actors, after all, dream.

I always have the feeling in these low states that something good is about to happen. That's when I feel the fullest, the rawest, the closest to myself.

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.

It's pleasant and bothersome and embarrassing all at once. Especially when you haven't done much and are a celebrity.

I want to do movies but not talk about them.

Music is 10% exhilaration and 90% utter disappointment.

I'm not in the business of becoming famous. And that's the advice I give to younger aspiring actors. Work onstage and do the little roles. In the end it's not important to be seen. It's important to do. There's a lot of disappointment in this business, but my family keeps me grounded.

What keeps me going is a constant sense of disappointment with what I've already done.

I think the intelligent thing about it is that you have to carefully listen to it all to grasp it, and because I'm not in every scene - colossal disappointment to everybody that it may be - I'm not getting the full picture here today while recording it.

We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret or disappointment.

Suspense is worse than disappointment.

If we bring not the good courage of minds covetous of truth, and truth only, prepared to hear all things, and decide upon all things, according to evidence, we should do more wisely to sit down contented in ignorance, than to bestir ourselves only to reap disappointment.

When too many Americans don't vote or participate, some see apathy and despair. I see disappointment and even outrage. And I believe that out of this frustration can come hope and action.

It's a disappointment to lose key players. On the other hand it creates an opportunity to play other players.
