More quotes by 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
You must understand, I don't have to be happy to be happy.
Juliette Binoche
I'm not obsessed by looks. I think you can become a prisoner of your own image.
Juliette Binoche
Acting is a tough business, and you need to be in good shape mentally and physically.
Juliette Binoche
I don't believe in coincidence.
Juliette Binoche
It's never been my purpose to become an American icon, or more famous or richer.
Juliette Binoche
You have to have the courage to wait, to say no, ... And thats difficult. This job is very uncertain, and its frightening.
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
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
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
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
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.
Juliette Binoche
The thing is that I never felt beautiful. I really never did. I think I can change my looks and be different things, but I've never thought of myself as this face.
Juliette Binoche
For me, acting goes to a special place it's almost mystical. You have to let go of what you think is good it's a jump into trust, and trying to reach without wanting too much.
Juliette Binoche
People think actors have such glamorous lives, but the truth is actors go where nobody wants to go.
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
Ive never thought of my characters as being sad. On the contrary, they are full of life. They didnt choose tragedy. Tragedy chose them.
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 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.
