It's very hard having a career in different continents and two different languages.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I can't get into all that physical stuff of having to have flawless skin... Sometimes you see people and it looks like someone's got an eraser and made their face a little blurry - their traits seem to go out of focus.

Men don't fall in love with me - only young ones.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
My children are lovely. They're perfect.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I am sure that, had I grown up with both parents, had I grown up in a safe environment, had I grown up with a feeling of safety rather than danger, I would not be the way I am.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
Making films can be absolutely fantastic, but it can also be incredibly dull. You spend the whole day sitting by yourself in your trailer and then you get called to deliver one sentence - then you're told to come back and do it again at 5:30 the following morning.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
People are always saying, English, English, English rose, and I just feel so completely different.

As an adult, it's a huge shock to be orphaned; as a child it's just hideous, ghastly.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I just don't see very many films. Because I make them.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
My life is European.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I was very lost as a teenager. Which is a horrible way to feel.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
Often, the roles I'm offered in England are melancholic women who are filled with regret for the past, regret for their fading beauty.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
People will now go to films with subtitles, you know. They're not afraid of them. It's one of the upsides of text-messaging and e-mail. Maybe the only good thing to come of it.

I'm not used to being asked what I want to talk about. That's why I'm an actress. Get told what to do, stand on the mark, say your words, wear this, look this way, look that way.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I'm very good at forgetting people.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I never raise my voice!
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I know people think that I always play these characters who are in control and can chop someone's head off with a look.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I do not want to pour out my heart to the world. I am cautious of what I say and to whom.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I know I can be bolshy and really unpleasant, and it always happens if I lose confidence in the people I'm working with. If I've got no confidence in what I'm doing and they don't provide me with some assurance that we're doing the right thing then I bully people. I'm a horrible bully.

Life is too short to live on low-fat everything.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I can't move back to England. My home is in France now. I'd love to but I can't. My family's all there now.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
I have a feeling I will work for a long, long time. I like it a lot... and I don't know. I just have a feeling that I'm going to be one of those people who go on for ever.
Kristin Scott Thomas -
We older women in Europe are lucky not to be shoved away in a drawer.
