I think that nudity is beautiful. Sometimes it can be awful, but when it's beautiful. Cinema is the art about reality; it's art from reality. In French we say l'art de la realite. You show reality, so you have to show bodies.

Léa Seydoux

I am about life. I surround myself with beautiful things. I work hard to have a better life. This job helps me achieve that through the people I meet. I'm lucky – not to have been a cover girl – but to have been able to meet all these people, to live these adventures and travel so comfortably. But despite that, it's still difficult. Nothing comes easily. Everything I‘ve earned is down to me, and no one else.

Léa Seydoux

I don't like comfort zones. Having never had any drama training, I don't really have a technique, so I'm continually learning new things. I like being frightened, and always having to start from scratch.

Léa Seydoux

I don't pay much attention to magazine covers. One day, there'll be slack times in my career. It's unavoidable, because success is temporary. Which is why you have to stay focused on this very taxing job.

Léa Seydoux

I was putting forward too much of myself when I was singing.

Léa Seydoux

I basically got into all this to avoid having office hours, I liked the idea that you'd work really hard for certain periods of time, then not do anything for ages. But it didn't work out like that. All I ever seem to be doing is working. (Léa Seydoux)

I get a buzz from speaking another language, and filming abroad in conditions like these gives makes me feel part of the adventure. It's very exotic!
