"I remember having to take detours around the Hollywood sign to avoid having to see this grotesque poster of myself on Sunset Boulevard."

"I sometimes feel like I could do another job. Anything. Maybe because as an actress you're playing different characters, everything feels possible."
"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."
"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."

"If you have everything, then you don't want to go on. It's the lacking that makes you search for something better."
"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."
"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."
