More quotes by Juliette Binoche

Image
I'm a fighter as a mother. I'm fighting to be a mother, but I cannot say no to my passion because it's me, as well.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I think acting is about forgetting yourself in order to give the best of yourself. It's passing through you more than you're creating it. You're not the flower, but the vase which holds the flower.
Juliette Binoche
Image
You must understand, I don't have to be happy to be happy.
Juliette Binoche
Image
It's never been my purpose to become an American icon, or more famous or richer.
Juliette Binoche
Image
You make your own path as an actor. Nobody does it for you, so you have to invent yourself.

As an actress we don't beat one another. It's whoever's right for the part.

I sometimes feel like I could do another job. Anything. Maybe because as an actress you're playing different characters, everything feels possible.

Juliette Binoche
Image
I want to know why I'm alive. I want to understand. It's like exploration it's like someone being interested in a place and its history, digging into the earth and looking for it, searching - it's a passion.
Juliette Binoche
Image
When I'm in the movie, I'm entirely in the movie. When I'm on the set, I'm 200 per cent there when I'm at home, I'm 200 per cent at home.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I'm very patient and always willing to try things but I have some resistance as well because I have my own vision. I have resistance sometimes because I see a director who's freaking out and wants to have control and they sometimes anticipate about what I'm going to be doing or not.
Juliette Binoche
Image
As an actress, I think there is always a political consciousness there.
Juliette Binoche
Image
What makes a person sexy is when he's not trying to be sexy.
Juliette Binoche
Image
Choosing to be in the theatre was a way to put my roots down somewhere with other people. It was a way to choose a new family.
Juliette Binoche
Image
Maybe it's because my mother divorced and my grandmother divorced, so maybe I'm frightened deep down. But then I also feel there is no real need. Why do I need to get married? To reassure me? No I don't need reassurance.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I live for the present always. I accept this risk. I don't deny the past, but it's a page to turn.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I think the world would be much better if you always started the morning by calling the person you dreamt of during the night.

Acting is a tough business, and you need to be in good shape mentally and physically.
