More quotes by Vincent Cassel
La Haine - first of all, it was the story of friendship. I was very close with Mathieu Kassovitz he was somebody I met in the nights of Paris. And the hip-hop scene and all that... You know, it was very much about doing our own thing, and some of the subject matter was so close to what we knew and the people we were hanging out with.

When you see violence in movies in general, it's very quick and painless, which isn't what it's like.
Vincent Cassel
Cinema is entertainment, and people go to the movies because they want to feel good and forget about everything.

Neither of us are workaholics. I think the key thing is to accept that if you only exist through what you do, then you become what you do, and this is very wrong.
Vincent Cassel
I have learned that acting is not about beauty.
Vincent Cassel
I was thinking of going to London drama schools or to New York, because France didn't accommodate the things I wanted to do in film.
