Juliette Binoche

I've never thought of my characters as being sad. On the contrary, they are full of life. They didn't choose tragedy. Tragedy chose them.

I never felt being an actor or making a movie was an easy thing to do.

I never really worked in Hollywood. Some American producers came to Europe to shoot films with me, so it's a different situation... It was not my aim.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.

I am happy to the spokeswoman for this French youth that tomorrow will be spearhead new hope in the shape of the National Front.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
