Quote

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.

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

I believe such illumination comes if you're open to the surprises the universe throws at you. You must be able to let go of the past, whatever success you may have seen, whatever your comfort, whatever your habits. To me, that's the key to loving life: Enabling yourself to step bravely into the unknown. Only there will you find yourself again.

For me, habit is just a synonym for death.
Juliette Binoche

I believe that being an actress or being involved in a movie has to be a life experience, otherwise why go for it? I have to change me, and I have to learn things, and I have to push me and my limits. By acting, I find a freedom inside of a prison in a way.
Juliette Binoche
Image
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
Image
Some words, you know, it's amazing but some words would come only in French, and when I speak French, it would only come in English. And so the adjustment is very difficult sometimes.
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
It's never been my purpose to become an American icon, or more famous or richer.
Juliette Binoche
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I take care of myself because I'm an actress and I have to take care of my body as it's my tool in order to give in films.
Juliette Binoche
Image
As actors, we are so privileged to do what we do and to give to the world and to choose the subject we want to say to the world.
