I'd rather not have an address in France but an address in Italy because I love the country.
— Gerard Depardieu
I consider myself a free man and a citizen of the world.
I want to get more involved with the vineyards I have all over the world and to spend more time with the people who work in them.
When you have heart disease, you start to be tired of everything. It's like getting older. You become more white, and after that, grey. You have no feeling for anything.
I'm an actor. And it is, for me, an opportunity to meet people. One of the advantages of my profession is I come into contact with many people.
My unrealized ambition is to tend my vines, produce wine, and work like an artisan. I dream of rediscovering the old traditions and customs of wine growing, not necessarily to deny the technology which we have today, but to harness it and work in harmony with nature.
I'm curious about people. That's what I've always done since I've been a small boy. I'm curious about others.
I never really like the characters I play. I only come to love them afterwards.
I've had affairs. But I'm not the sort of man who has 10,000 affairs.
I like the idea of bringing cartoon characters to life... and although the Americans have already attempted this, their culture is not sufficiently humane to make it work.
I have learnt a lot about my body since my heart attack. I don't drink as much now as before.
I am a free man. I feel at home everywhere in Europe.
I gain weight and lose it again in inevitable cycles.
Hollywood exists only for the B-movies. The best things are coming from Europe.
The wine I produce is not for keeping. It's the wine you want when meeting friends for a game of cards.
In Hollywood, you still have wonderful actors, but it's so hard to work there. To work becomes a Kafka nightmare - it's the last communist country!
One of the advantages of my profession is I come into contact with many people.
I'm living in the present. I have no ambition. It's true. But I want to live.
The relationship between an actor and a director is like a love story between a man and a woman. I'm sure sometimes I'm the woman.
I would never let myself knock out a journalist.
I had rapidly become aware there were problems with the Kalifa group.
I love the police, contrary to many people.
I'd rather spend my time with grape growers than actors. In the film industry, all the money is focused on television and the stupidity of American cinema.
I don't care about Hollywood films. I'm not against Hollywood films, you know? Hollywood films were very good before, in the 1950s.
My only model for being a father was my father, an illiterate on the margin of society.
Authenticity is the ability to listen to what nature tells us. Listening isn't the same thing as never making a mistake, but the important thing is to learn.
I do this profession. I'm an actor. And it is, for me, an opportunity to meet people.
In the film industry, all the money is focused on television and the stupidity of American cinema.
Cooking is not difficult. Everyone has taste, even if they don't realize it. Even if you're not a great chef, there's nothing to stop you understanding the difference between what tastes good and what doesn't.
If cinema is a woman then certainly there are many shores.
I don't snack all the time, but I do sometimes drink l more than I should.
