Nostalgia is when you want things to stay the same. I know so many people staying in the same place.
Jeanne Moreau
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I am subject to very powerful lows. When you have highs, you have terrible lows. When you pinpoint that you are responsible for everything that happens to you, it is very frightening.
Jeanne Moreau
Image
I am a woman with absolutely no sense of nostalgia.
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
Many people associate stage fright with a fear of looking ridiculous, making a bad impression. For me, it's like a kind of fever.
Jeanne Moreau
Image
To go out with the setting sun on an empty beach is to truly embrace your solitude.
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
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
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
