Jane Birkin's Quotes

  • David Attenborough... has that wonderful, breathy voice and he's always so fascinated by what he's seeing. There's nothing about him that I can't find attractive.
  • As there is no one to be pleased or unpleased with me, I'm actually rather merrier with my cat.
  • Big Ben . . . hearing the chimes makes me feel at home.
  • By meeting people in Sarajevo I realized I had nothing to complain about--they'd lost children crossing the road trying to find water. I stopped thinking about my problems and would sit with women in underground places, singing songs.
  • Any film I see at two o'clock in afternoon with my mother seems to cast a strange spell that means we both come out sobbing.
