I never have more than one bag at a time. I think one is already quite enough. Also, I hate changing bags, so I never have the thing of having ten bags. Any bag that's with me will take the same course as I will. It will take the same airplanes and will be squashed in the same way and will be used as a cushion in the airports.

David Attenborough... has that wonderful, breathy voice, and he's always so fascinated by what he's seeing. There's nothing about him that I can't find attractive. Jane Birkin attenboroughattractivebreathy Change image and share on social
I grind my teeth and keep my thumbs in so tight that I've dislocated them, just not to scream. Sometimes as an actor one is lucky enough to be asked to scream. Jane Birkin actoraskdislocate Change image and share on social
I think it's always good to read local authors or relevant books. In Egypt, I studied hieroglyphics and read everything about the mummies. Jane Birkin authorbookegypt Change image and share on social

I feel most comfortable in an old pair of jeans, Converse, and a man's jersey. My best friend cuts my hair with kitchen scissors. Jane Birkin comfortableconversecut Change image and share on social
I colour my hair mousy brown and I wear makeup only on stage. I use Laura Mercier - something called Biscuit, I think. I run one tiny sponge over my face and cover the red blotches. If I've got some rouge, I'll bung it on my mouth and cheeks. Jane Birkin biscuitblotchbrown share on social
I don't like getting older, but there's nothing I can do. Hitting 60 wasn't great, but I think I was lucky in not being that beautiful; it can be really cruel on people who have been stunning. Jane Birkin beautifulcruelgreat Change image and share on social
