Jeanne Moreau Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Jeanne Moreau:

Every night I go over what I did in the day, in ethical or moral terms. Have I treated people properly? Did I tell the truth?

If you get trapped in the idea that what is most important is what image of yourself you're giving to the world, you're on a dangerous path.

Jeanne Moreau

I gradually work myself into a frenzy as the shoot approaches, while we're choosing the costumes or working with the make-up artist. I'm not so much interested in my character as the film itself.

Jeanne Moreau

If you're extremely, painfully frightened of age, it shows.

Jeanne Moreau

Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.

Jeanne Moreau

Something pretty... that's just the surface. People worry so much about aging, but you look younger if you don't worry about it.

Jeanne Moreau

If you want to live your life through to the end, you have to live dangerously.

Jeanne Moreau

Being an actress is to be in tune with the fantasies of a man. What woman never dreamt of that?

Jeanne Moreau

Knowing how to die is knowing how to live. What is death anyway? It's the outcome of life.

Jeanne Moreau

To go out with the setting sun on an empty beach is to truly embrace your solitude.

Jeanne Moreau

When you live under the power of terror and segregation, you can't ever start a work of art.

Jeanne Moreau

Acting deals with very delicate emotions. It is not putting up a mask. Each time an actor acts he does not hide; he exposes himself.

Jeanne Moreau

My face has changed with the years and has enough history in it to give audiences something to work with.

Jeanne Moreau

It's like climbing a staircase. I'm on the top of the staircase, I look behind me and I see the steps. That's where I was.

Jeanne Moreau

Some gods may cross your path, but why should gods be beautiful? They could also be frightening.

Jeanne Moreau

Characters who are on screen from start to finish are not necessarily the ones who have the greatest impact.

Jeanne Moreau

I am subject to very powerful lows. When you have highs, you have terrible lows. When you pinpoint that you are responsible for everything that happens to you, it is very frightening.

Jeanne Moreau

One thing you have to give up is attaching importance to what people see in you.

Jeanne Moreau

I can't belong to groups. I've tried. I behave normally, but people don't look at me normally.

Jeanne Moreau

All those vitamins aren't to keep death at bay, they're to keep deterioration at bay.

Jeanne Moreau

It's just as idiotic to say there is no life after death as it is to say there is one.

Jeanne Moreau

I am a woman with absolutely no sense of nostalgia.

Jeanne Moreau

Nostalgia is when you want things to stay the same. I know so many people staying in the same place.

Jeanne Moreau

Every night I go over what I did in the day, in ethical or moral terms. Have I treated people properly? Did I tell the truth?

Jeanne Moreau

The cliche is that life is a mountain. You go up, reach the top and then go down.

Jeanne Moreau

Beyond the beauty, the sex, the titillation, the surface, there is a human being. And that has to emerge.

Jeanne Moreau

People's opinions don't interfere with me.

Jeanne Moreau

I need, absolutely, to be alone.

Jeanne Moreau

You don't have to be a wreck. You don't have to be sick. One's aim in life should be to die in good health. Just like a candle that burns out.

Jeanne Moreau

Death is an absolute mystery. We are all vulnerable to it, it's what makes life interesting and suspenseful.

Jeanne Moreau

My aim in life is not to judge.

Jeanne Moreau

I don't think success is harmful, as so many people say. Rather, I believe it indispensable to talent, if for nothing else than to increase the talent.

Jeanne Moreau

I can be intimidating, but not within the confines of a film shoot.

Jeanne Moreau

As a matter of principle, I always come to a film like a blank slate, I don't learn my lines in advance. With this approach, I feel clean.

Jeanne Moreau

Some children I have met are very beautiful. Some children are imbeciles, vulgar, terrible.

Jeanne Moreau

Some people are addicts. If they don't act, they don't exist.

Jeanne Moreau

I'm always amazed when young women who are having babies want their husbands to watch the babies come out. I would never allow anything like that.
