More quotes by Jeanne Moreau

Jeanne Moreau
I can be intimidating, but not within the confines of a film shoot.
Jeanne Moreau
What is amazing for a woman of my age is that I change as the world is changing-and changing very, very fast. I don't think my mother had that opportunity to change.
Jeanne Moreau
My life is very exciting now. Nostalgia for what? It's like climbing a staircase. I'm on the top of the staircase, I look behind and see the steps. That's where I was. We're here right now. Tomorrow, we'll be someplace else. So why nostalgia?
Jeanne Moreau

Jeanne Moreau
For me it's not possible to forget, and I don't understand people who, when the love is ended, can bury the other person in hatred or oblivion. For me, a man I have loved becomes a kind of brother.
Jeanne Moreau
Aging gracefully is supposed to mean trying not to hide time passing and just looking a wreck. Don't worry girls, look like a wreck, that's the way it goes.
Jeanne Moreau
To give a character life in a short space of time, it helps if you arrive on screen with a past.
Jeanne Moreau
We have so many words for states of mind, and so few words for the states of the body.
Jeanne Moreau
Being an actress is to be in tune with the fantasies of a man. What woman never dreamt of that?
Jeanne Moreau
Age protects love not, but love protects up to a certain degree before age.
Jeanne Moreau
My analyst refused to hear my dreams. This was years ago.
Jeanne Moreau
