More quotes by Juliette Binoche
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
As an actress, I think there is always a political consciousness there.
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 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
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 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
I try to see my films just once. It's like a dream you've been through when it's been intense, and you just have to go through it once more just to make sure you've had it.
Juliette Binoche
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
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
It's never been my purpose to become an American icon, or more famous or richer.
Juliette Binoche
You make your own path as an actor. Nobody does it for you, so you have to invent yourself.
Juliette Binoche
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
For me, habit is just a synonym for death.
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
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
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.
Juliette Binoche
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
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?
Juliette Binoche
When I won the Oscar, there was something telling me 'this isn't the truth'. I had to get back to real work.
Juliette Binoche
