Jeanne Moreau
Image
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
Image
Sometimes there is a great intimacy between women without any homosexuality. This is something that men are less likely to understand, because for them sensuality means sexual. It doesn't excite us to imagine two men together.
Jeanne Moreau
Image
I don't like the idea of separating life and work. That notion seems dated and a bit alien to me.
Jeanne Moreau
Image
Death is an absolute mystery. We are all vulnerable to it, it's what makes life interesting and suspenseful.
Jeanne Moreau
Image
Something pretty... that's just the surface. People worry so much about aging, but you look younger if you don't worry about it.
Jeanne Moreau
Image
If you want to live your life through to the end, you have to live dangerously.
Jeanne Moreau
