Changing someone's life is not the best, is not wanting to change the other life. It is being who you are that changes another's life. Do you understand?

I was used to theatre classes. I studied with my mother she was a theatre teacher and directed, too, so it was very family-like. Then I studied with a great teacher in Paris, and she was wonderful she pushed me, but she was a warm soul.

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.

Attraction is beyond our will or ideas sometimes.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I like being a mother, and I want to be involved in my work, so I have to make choices. If you're a film actress, your career is from 20 to 45, but you can still dream.
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
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.

As an actress, I think there is always a political consciousness there.

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 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.

Image
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.

People think actors have such glamorous lives, but the truth is actors go where nobody wants to go.
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.

Image
I don't believe in coincidence.
Juliette Binoche
Image
You make your own path as an actor. Nobody does it for you, so you have to invent yourself.

My aim was never to be an American star otherwise, I would have moved to Los Angeles.
Juliette Binoche
Image
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.

Image
You have to have the courage to wait, to say no, ... And thats difficult. This job is very uncertain, and its frightening.
Juliette Binoche
Image
It's never been my purpose to become an American icon, or more famous or richer.
Juliette Binoche
Image
When you make a film, it's a bet. You don't know how the film is going to be, anyway.
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.
