More quotes by Juliette Binoche
You must understand, I don't have to be happy to be happy.
Juliette Binoche
Usually I love preparing. It's really the time I prefer, because it's a time of reflection and of possibility of growth - to let it cook inside.
Juliette Binoche
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
As an actress, I think there is always a political consciousness there.
Juliette Binoche
When you really put your heart in the work, you don't think of how you look. And I think that's the beauty of it.
Juliette Binoche
My experience has nothing to do with creation, I don't think, even though maturity is helpful. In a creation process, there's an intuition that takes you and if it's nourished with awareness and experience, it's great.
Juliette Binoche
I want to make films that are political and social. Films with a message or an idea. Films that dare to ask.
Juliette Binoche
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
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
I have stories that I'd like to maybe one day consider directing, but you need a lot of time to write and put it together.
Juliette Binoche
I'm not obsessed by looks. I think you can become a prisoner of your own image.
Juliette Binoche
Sometimes I call directors. Sometimes I just meet with them. It just happens. It's not that I'm pushy. It comes naturally. But I go ahead. I don't stay in my armchair, waiting for the phone to ring.
Juliette Binoche
I need relationships, but sometimes when I am in one I feel claustrophobic. It is about feeling that I still have my freedom, that I have choices. I don't look back on the past because I like to live in the present. I know this makes some people think I probably never cared, but I need my freedom and I like to keep moving.
Juliette Binoche
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
In a building with apartments, of course, you want to make connections. Life is easier that way. There's salt if you don't have salt you can knock at someone's door, like in any city. But you know, you can hear the others, and you want to sleep, you get annoyed.
Juliette Binoche
Each new film is like a trial. Before I step in front of the camera, I do not know whether I am going to fall or whether I am going to fly - and that is exactly the way I want it to stay.
Juliette Binoche
I think I am pretty much melancholic.
Juliette Binoche
You make your own path as an actor. Nobody does it for you, so you have to invent yourself.
Juliette Binoche
As an actress we don't beat one another. It's whoever's right for the part.
Juliette Binoche
What makes a person sexy is when he's not trying to be sexy.
