The body is an actor's tool, like the face, malleable. I never thought that being naked was immoral or outrageous.

More quotes by Emmanuelle Beart
I give everything I have to give on the screen. I feel I don't owe the public anything else.
Emmanuelle Beart
Often, when you see yourself on the screen, you feel like a sweater that's been put through the washing machine. You have the impression of having done something full and luminous, and suddenly, when you see it on the screen, it's turned back into a tiny little thing.
Emmanuelle Beart
In Hollywood there's no real material. They would send me stuff, but I hadn't even seen the director. If I don't see the director's eyes, I'm not going. I'm not even going to pack my bags.
Emmanuelle Beart
If I have one thing perfect, it's my eyebrows. And my feet. I love my feet. They're like Japanese feet. The rest I would like to hide. Especially my freckles. I feel ridiculous.
Emmanuelle Beart
I'm less desperate now to express what's inside me, that's true - I act these days because it keeps me awake and interested, an eternal student.
Emmanuelle Beart
Once I opened my eyes to the realities of life, I couldn't close them.
Emmanuelle Beart
I started acting without any vocation. I continued out of love.
Emmanuelle Beart
I was a very bad student. I didn't know what I wanted to do, but I knew I didn't want to go farther in school. I hated school and was always the bad one I was always insulting the teachers.
Emmanuelle Beart
I am an actress, I earn money, I am well-known. I don't think it is altruism to become engaged in humanitarian work. It's the least one can do.
Emmanuelle Beart
My looks mean nothing to me. If anything, they are a hindrance.
Emmanuelle Beart
Very often with an American movie, the end is very happy and you just feel good when you go out. When you go to a French movie, it's kind of like, oh!, and you can't go out you're stuck in your chair. It goes so deeply inside of the heart.
Emmanuelle Beart
I stay in France. Better to be the queen of a village than a servant in a kingdom.
Emmanuelle Beart
I don't give a damn about Hollywood.
Emmanuelle Beart
There are moments when you feel that the desire to work is fading, and the only way to bring it back is to get away from it, to put yourself in a state of frustration so you feel the need again.
Emmanuelle Beart
For me, I don't feel it is a success in the career to be the pretty woman career success comes from being characters who tell us something about the truth.
Emmanuelle Beart
I have no TV, thank God. I haven't heard anything about Tom Cruise, except that he had a baby, I think.
Emmanuelle Beart
There is a phrase in French, which means 'to miss.' To pass by. To not be able to stop. You love someone and someone loves you, but it just can't work for different reasons.
Emmanuelle Beart
I played football when I was little. I didn't want to be an actress at all, I wanted to be a majorette in an Australian circus. That was my ambition.
Emmanuelle Beart
I keep reading that I'm cold. But I'm not, I'm shy. And I play a lot of women of fire and sexuality like an animal - so I'm cold on one side and fiery on the other.
Emmanuelle Beart
My parents sent me to Montreal because I kept getting kicked out of school in France.
