    Julie Delpy Quotes

    • I’m an adaptable nomad. I love Paris, I’ve been living in Los Angeles and New York since 1990. I love London, too. My roots are inside of me.
    • I don’t want to go to the Bahamas on holiday. I hate islands. I want to go to Brittany, where it’s cold and raining, and there’s nothing fancy about it.
    • I was six years old when I saw my first Godard movie, eight when I first experienced Bergman. I wanted to be a director when I was fourteen.
    • If Woody Allen called me, I’d be there straight away. Who wouldn’t? Truly.
    • Too many women throw themselves into romance because they’re afraid of being single, then start making compromises and losing their identity. I won’t do that.
    • When you’re an actress, you become this thing in people’s hands that people are trying to manipulate. I cannot stand it.
