Julie Delpy's Quotes

• I'm an adaptable nomad. I love Paris, I've been living in Los Angeles and New York since 1990. I love London, too. My roots are inside of me.
• [on 2 Days in New York (2012)] I thought "How can I make money from something I don't personally value, but people would value?" And I thought, "Oh, my soul. Some people believe in the soul, so maybe someone would buy it". And I thought of putting it on eBay, just for fun, at one point. I didn't, but it gave me the idea of using it in the film.
• A lot of people expect women to have a certain limit to how polite they can be. It seems it's more the domain of men to say things that are really outrageous. So, for me it's very freeing as a woman to not even be politically correct about feminism. Obviously I'm for women's rights and I'm very feminist, but I'm beyond feminism.
• I have no problem with crudeness. I never go overboard because I don't want to be tacky, but I think a certain crudeness is funny. I've always been like that.
• [on Before Midnight (2013)] The dynamic of the first two films was pretty similar, it was about connecting and then reconnecting. This one is different in that it concerns the problems that stem from being connected. It's about being tethered, feeling trapped.
