In the US I can cry without anyone going immediately around saying that Vincent Perez is in the middle of a depression crisis.

I think Diderot was a genius, that he was a powerful man. His power was in the force of his analysis and his taste. There was certainly something monstrous about him, monstrous in the bulimic sense. He had a need to touch everything, explore everything, taste everything. It`s not for me to judge another man, but I would have loved to meet him.

I can show jealousy, but I do not want to be jealous. Jealousy is like a box. It has to be kept closed.

Becoming a father makes us understand that we are no longer the center of the universe. It allows us to consciously feel pure love in a wonderful, but completely new way. To have a child is to live a daily and constant enchantment, but also to be tortured with fear.

I was not really fond of marriage, of contracts,but when everything became so evident with Karine, all fears and uncertainty disappeared. I only wanted to make her happy. When it was time to arrange everything for the wedding, I was in Africa in a reservation surrounded by snakes and lions, and I was stressed thinking about Karine, who had to face it all alone. She came for a while over there with Roxane, and it was wonderful.

I have a one-year-old daughter, Iman. It is exciting to be a father.

Yes, my mind changed a lot. I was blown away by the feelings that emerged from me. ... She really brought a lot of happiness to my life. I have to say, spending time with her I know, this is it. This is wonderful.on his first child, daughter Iman.

Can you imagine her solitude? She must be so proud, scared and lonely. Viviane is like that ­ she` s really very pure; she`s a good girl. The idea of becoming a woman was impossible for me too, but this kind of challenge brings out new things in my acting. I used to feel you had to show, to bring things to people, but it`s good to let them steal from you. With Viviane I decided not to show, just to be. on playing a transvestite.

She`s been in my life a long time and a certain day, instead of turning my head somewhere else, I finally felt that my happiness was with her. Since then, I feel more adult. I work better. Karine wants a lot; she wants to face every problem. She`s the ideal woman. With her I know where I am going on wife Karine Silla.

Every morning I`m facing myself in the mirror. It doesn`t change anything finding out I`m supposed to be a sex symbol. It`s like a joke. My mom is always saying that to me. She`s like, `A sex symbol? You, my son? Oh, please. Look at your nose!`

My mom hates my movies because I actually die in most of them; she thinks my career is a big mess and for her, it is impossible to love a film in which I die. But come on, I don`t really die in every one! Only in those for which it is really absolutely necessary; otherwise the movie would be a complete failure.

"Love is more and more important in our society because you`ll find it less and less."

"I consider myself European."

"Did you discover something of a feminine side? Yes, but I never really had a problem with that."

"From the waist up I`m German, from the waist down I`m Spanish."

"I was like a plant in the wrong ground. It wasn`t the right earth for me, but I think it was great because I was in touch with the nature and grew up in nature with forest and trees, fields, mountains, rivers, and it was good."

"What is your favorite women`s perfume? The smell a woman has in the morning. Oh, come on! It`s the best. Everybody knows that."

"Deep fidelity is a part of love."

"When I was a kid, I fell in love very easily, but they were stories that I invented myself. In fact, I was very catholic. I needed to fall in love in order to suffer a little, in order to show myself that I was alive. I often say that a woman can reveal a man. I love strong women who leave an impression."

"We grow up in a society that takes us apart instead of showing us we are all part of the same unit."
