Jean Seberg quotes

I have two memories of Saint Joan. The first was being burned at the stake in the picture. The second was being burned at the stake by the critics. The latter hurt more.

I was scared like a rabbit, and it showed on the screen. It was not a good experience at all. I started where most actresses end up.

I've been making films in France about people I'm not really interested in. They are people whose greatest problem in life is where they are going to have dinner that night.

I got married for all the wrong reasons. I married because I was afraid and beaten, because I wanted to be protected.

That doesn't mean that I will stay here. I'm in Paris because my work has been here. I'm not an expatriate. I will go where my work is.

I miss that casualness and friendliness of Americans, the kind that makes people smile. I also miss blue jeans, milk shakes, thick steaks and supermarkets. I'm glad I always have that ticket home.

I'm enjoying it to the fullest extent. I've been tremendously lucky to have gone through this experience at an age where I can still learn.

Everybody knows I'm here anyway so it doesn't matter, you know, I've got little friends who follow.
