More quotes by Jacqueline Bisset
I consider myself a character actress, and that's working out. I'm getting chances to do things. I like the process - I don't want to pretend I'm something other than what I am.
Jacqueline Bisset
I think I am an adult.

I wanted to go to acting school, and I did a few modeling jobs to pay for acting school. I never aspired to be a model. I met lots of photographers, and I learned a lot about light - as a source of love and illumination, light as a gift of love. On film, that's a massive contribution.

Jacqueline Bisset
At first I was always cast as the girlfriend. It was a long time before I got to play characters who were people.
Jacqueline Bisset
I'd like to work more, but I don't just want to do kind of generic characters. I want to do interesting characters, and I'd like to be cast against type.
Jacqueline Bisset
I went to the premiere of The Detective with Sinatra, and perhaps people jumped to conclusions. He was very protective towards me and never came on to me sexually.
Jacqueline Bisset
Character contributes to beauty.
Jacqueline Bisset
When you share work, and you have the opportunity of seeing people you like doing what they do best, and you also interchange socially with them, it's very addictive.
Jacqueline Bisset
Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades.
Jacqueline Bisset
What comes first in a relationship is lust - then more lust.
