“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.”

“I live very normally, I go out with my friends, we go to the movies, I queue, we go to restaurants.”

“I always try to keep that feeling of being on the edge. I'm afraid of knowing too well and seeming mechanical.”

“That's what I like about film-it can be bizarre, classic, normal, romantic. Cinema is to me the most versatile thing.”

“J'étais contente, c'est tout!”

“People who know me know I'm strong, but I'm vulnerable.”

“Have you ever stood where a stream spills into a river? The two become one. They laugh over the stones together, twist through the sharp canyons together, plunge down the waterfalls together. It is the same when a man and woman love one another. It is not always a pleasant thing, but when it happens, a man has little to say about it. Women, like streams, can be smooth one minute and make a man feel like he’s swimming through white water the next.”
