More quotes by Jacqueline Bisset
I grew up in a small town about 40 miles outside London, but it was a fairly cosmopolitan household.
Jacqueline Bisset

Jacqueline Bisset
I could never have conceived that I would ever get to work in a Truffaut film. It was astonishing to me, and still is. I felt like an old pro, but it was still so unexpected.
Jacqueline Bisset
My view is quite simple. When your dog pees on the carpet, you do not give away your dog. You say, This dog is special. I have to teach him not to pee on the carpet. I feel exactly the same way about men. They need to be taught things.
Jacqueline Bisset
If people choose to judge how you look, that's their situation. I didn't feel that it was a problem. I've played all kinds of parts. I've played glamorous, and unglamorous, and all kinds of people. People want to pigeon hole you, I think.

Best beauty tip is forgiveness for yourself and others
Jacqueline Bisset
