“In France, in Europe, the young artists of any generation always act as grandsons of some great man - Poussin, for example, or Victor Hugo. They can't help it.

“Things were sort of Bohemian in Montmartre - one lived, one painted, one was a painter - all that doesn't mean anything, fundamentally.”

“Man is a rational animal who always loses his temper when called upon to act in accordance with the dictates of reason.”

“Opportunities present themselves every day - to everyone. You just have to be alert and ready to act.”

“The art of acting is not to act. Once you show them more, what you show them, in fact is bad acting.”
