I always felt guilty. My whole life.
There's nothing like a love song to give you a good laugh.
I remember one day sitting at the pool and suddenly the tears were streaming down my cheeks. Why was I so unhappy? I had success. I had security. But it wasn't enough. I was exploding inside.
I hate Sunday, I can't wait for Monday so I can go back to work again.
Never again! I can see no reason for marriage - ever at all. I've had it. Three times is enough.
I do not know how to kiss, or I would kiss you. Where do the noses go?
I don't think anyone has the right to intrude in your life, but they do. I would like people to separate the actress and the woman.
A kiss is the natures way to stop a conversation, when the words are superfluous
I didn't choose acting. It chose me.
On acting to daughter Isabella Rossellini: Keep it simple. Make a blank face and the music and the story will fill it in.
The theater was my mother and my father.
I thank God who slowly dressed me in a heavy skin, otherwise I would now be dead.
I'm only interested in two kinds of people, those who can entertain me and those who can advance my career.
