More quotes by Jeanne Moreau
I have no doubt who I am.
Jeanne Moreau
If you're extremely, painfully frightened of age, it shows.
Jeanne Moreau
Acting for me was the gospel, the love of the spoken word.
Jeanne Moreau
I don't think success is harmful, as so many people say. Rather, I believe it indispensable to talent, if for nothing else than to increase the talent.
Jeanne Moreau
Characters who are on screen from start to finish are not necessarily the ones who have the greatest impact.
Jeanne Moreau
To be free means to choose, whose slave you want to be.
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
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
I can be intimidating, but not within the confines of a film shoot.
Jeanne Moreau
Age protects love not, but love protects up to a certain degree before age.
Jeanne Moreau
To give and receive love, you have to be in touch with pain, you have to be capable of provoking it and feeling it.
Jeanne Moreau
I'm always amazed when young women who are having babies want their husbands to watch the babies come out. I would never allow anything like that.
Jeanne Moreau
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
Usually when a woman is 60, it's over.
Jeanne Moreau
You suffer when you give birth, it doesn't matter, it's nature. They tell you, oh, those hormone pills, they're terrible, you'll get cancer. But when it comes to Viagra for men, they don't speak about cancer.
Jeanne Moreau
Beyond the beauty, the sex, the titillation, the surface, there is a human being. And that has to emerge.
Jeanne Moreau
During rehearsals I am confronted by things very mysterious. I have terrific fights with inner demons, and it's more painful than it ever was.
Jeanne Moreau
All fiction becomes autobiographical when the author has true talent.
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
I don't like going where I've already been. Life is a myriad of territories to discover. I don't want to waste time with what I already know.
Jeanne Moreau
