I have to be careful not to be too proud in life, because there is always room for improvement.

The only thing I was trying to portray was serenity. Also, innocence, vulnerability and elegance.

I still have agents in France, Los Angeles and Amsterdam who call and suggest parts. I'd love to keep on doing both painting and acting until the end of my days.

I have a talent for happiness. I look with the eyes of a painter, and I see beauty.

I don't expect too much from the afterlife, I think that I know very well what pain is. When I think of the end of my life, I think mainly: I didn't do nothing, but I could have done more.

Of course it's difficult to top a box office success like Emmanuelle, so it will always be my most important work. But that's nothing to be ashamed of.

As a painter you're responsible yourself, 100 percent. In film, you have the editor, the director, the other actors. It has the advantage of not being solitary.

I'm very glad to have something to be passionate about. I can't imagine a life without passion.

No one has taken my heart in their hand. I haven't given it... I have lent myself, rented myself out, but never given myself.

You're much better off as a love goddess to die around the age of 40.

Self confidence for me is a fragile fleece.

Whatever my limited knowledge, I tried to make up for it with energy.

He wasn't one who wanted to look back on his life and say "I wish I spent more time in the office."

Beauty is in the character of a person. It's about having an interesting face and about what's inside. Anyone can take a good picture.

So many people are out of their minds.

Flirt!'s mascara is insane - I don't need false lashes when I wear it.

For nothing keeps a poet In his high singing mood Like unappeasable hunger For unattainable food.

I have been a Jack Albertson fan forever.

Sometimes it takes more courage not to let yourself see. Sometimes knowledge is damaging - not enlightenment but enleadenment.

We were extremely prescient in that we predicted the Soviet coup before it happened. That was kind of amazing.

In 1991, I co-founded my first start-up, Ink Development, which made software for an early tablet computer.
