I never believed in going to America with my show-reel and knocking on every agent's door. I couldn't even do it. I'm too insecure, and too proud. It's a strange combination.

It's a big responsibility to be the main part of a film because if you don't like me, you have a problem for two-and-a-half hours.

I read a lot of articles about young women in the resistance. All of a sudden, I felt that if I go too much into this horror, then I won't be able to start as a fresh character.

I'm not a method actor. I can't even explain so much what I do.

I knew always that Holland gave away the most Jews of all the countries. We are not the heroes that are in the history books.

I don't do method acting. If I play a farmer I'm not gonna spend 3 weeks on a chicken farm. That's a bit too much for me.

I think I'm a very intuitive actress.

In theater, the scenes I like the most are the ones where you are there and you cannot talk.

I personally don't like to rehearse so much. I really trust my instincts. I like to talk and talk and talk until we have to do it. I feel the same about theater.

I think it's cool people love to hate me.

I have a love-hate relationship with Twitter. There are moments I feel like 99 percent of the people who write stuff are the sweetest people, and then one crazy guy or girl spoils the whole thing.

Don’t try to change the world. To find yourself in a new world, change your thoughts.

All products are a multiplication of time invested

Margaret thought of all she knew for certain, that day would always follow night that love was never wasted nor was it lost.

Most museums - with all their burdens to pay for exhibitions, administration, and security - really don't have any money really to acquire art, with few exceptions.

The path up and down is one and the same.

It feels amazing and beautiful that music can have such an importance on the way that people form social groups. Music can change people. People can change the world.

I don't kill soloists only kill squads

I think every film is somehow a political film. You show a perspective and a world that has logic, and that logic is inserted into a political environment, and it means something. Yes, why not?

But overall I want to make sure people fall in love with the clothes and that they are satisfied

Grilled salmon and brown pasta works for me every time.
