I don't like flirting, and when I love someone, I always give everything, maybe too much. And then you have to work at it all the time. I mean, the first months are always great, but afterwards it becomes hard work. It's not as passionate and crazy.

I love photo shoots where I can be like a pinup, not myself. Where I can be feminine, glamorous, dark not like in real life. I hate it when you go in and they want you to be 'natural,' to be yourself. I just hate it. I love having fun. When they ask you to smile, I hate it. Of course I smile in my real life, but to do it on cue, that's not spontaneous. I'd rather do something that's like a little movie, like a little story, rather than just me, I feel naked.

I didn't want to do 'Casino Royale' when they told me to audition. I said no. Then they sent me the script, and I thought it was actually very interesting - and I had no other work at the time.

I'm worried because of my mother, she's going to see my performance and she's quite hard. She's going to see me naked. And my Dad, woah. Yeah, they're going to see me like a woman, you know?

We all show facets, to your mother, or to your boyfriend, or a friend. You're always a bit different.

Nipples aren't killing children. They should be more concerned about the wars that are happening. There's so much violence in the world. There are so many legitimate things to be upset about besides nipples.

I'll need my whole lifetime to polish my craft.
Eva Green
-
I like characters who have strong facades and then have secrets. They have cracks.

Don't be ashamed of who you are, embrace who you are.

A lot of the films now are more focused on the visuals than on the actors. I think all directors should go to drama school.
Eva Green
-
I give everything to my work, and I like complex roles, characters that aren't obvious. I've been very lucky so far, and I'm dreaming of working with directors like Jane Campion, Susanne Bier and the Dardennes. But the gods will decide.

I go shopping maybe three times a year in an intense way. I'm like a man. Can't spend too much time in a shop.

People think I'm so strong, but I'm very shy.

In a Tim Burton movie, you know it's going to be something unusual, or a bit mad. Something "other."
Eva Green
-
I was very studious, too much. I would never go out at weekends. I was very serious. You should have seen me in class - I was blushing and sweating every time the teacher asked me something.
Eva Green
-
In this business actors who have Botox or surgery make you very aware of age. It's awful.
Eva Green
-
Hollywood wouldn't suit me. In L.A. it's all about work - studio people have their five minutes with you and they go, 'Oh mah Gahd, I love your movie.' You just feel very self-conscious there.
Eva Green
-
To help people in the third world get educated and learn how to read and write is so important. I mean it is such an important human right.
Eva Green
-
When people say 'You're so beautiful' it makes me want to kill myself! As an actress you want to be seen for what you do, for the characters you can play, otherwise I'd be a model.
Eva Green
-
I need to fall in love with someone. Sorry - I mean fall in love with something. I need to wake myself up.

I hope I will not be typecast as a Bond girl for the rest of my life. I'm very proud of being a part of the Bond family, but I don't want to be the sexy girl forever. I'm not meaning to complain, but I just want to be taken seriously.
Eva Green
-
It's very flattering to be remembered as a Bond girl with brains and not just for looking good in a bikini. I was a fan of Sophie Marceau in 'The World Is Not Enough.' I think her performance was very underrated.
Eva Green
-
My father has always written with Mont Blanc pens. It's very chic and elegant and classic.
Eva Green

I didn't know about the Bond girl thing. I was approached very quickly, boom, boom, boom, it happened.
