Tilda Swinton
It was just me, naked as underneath my clothes right now, as all of you are.
Tilda Swinton
It's a real comfort zone for me to feel alien.
Tilda Swinton
Art is good for my soul precisely because it reminds me that we have souls in the first place.

I was just talking to Benedict [Cumberbatch] who's got a little baby and knows his father lives in his phone. We as humans are evolving really fast, so everyday we're hit with that.

I'm really interested in the idea of long, long life and transformation and immortality.
Tilda Swinton
When I say that it's taken us [with Luca Guadagnino ] 11 years to make this film, what I mean is that it was 11 years ago that we started to talk about a kind of cinema that we wanted to make together.
Tilda Swinton
In The Deep End, you have a woman who looks like a J. Crew mother who can manage it all. Then we begin to realize what's going on inside. Every time I see one of those women stuck at a stoplight with the children in the back of her car, I sort of think, What have you just done? What's going on in your life?.
Tilda Swinton
