Jacqueline Bisset
I have never given up on men easily.
Jacqueline Bisset

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.
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
At the time, 1980, people regarded actresses involved with production with a certain amount of fear, resentment and anger.
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
This film business, perhaps more so in America than in Europe, has always been about young sexuality. It's not true of theatre, but in America, film audiences are young. It's not an intellectual cinema in America.
Jacqueline Bisset
Sometimes you like the personal adventure implicit in the making of a film, and sometimes you like your part in a film, and sometimes you like the final result.
Jacqueline Bisset
The thing about anything in life is you have to get ready for it. Study, learn.
Jacqueline Bisset
You need to get in touch with your body ... do dance, movement, learn to be supple, or be someone who's coordinated, preferably. You have to study, train, and you don't have to go to school necessarily, you can teach yourself a lot of stuff.
Jacqueline Bisset
You can sometimes learn more working with less talented people, because you learn to survive.
