But I'm very careful with opinions because I never know what the truth is. When I read what the press says about me, I don't really believe what it says about other people.

I must represent France, and I want to be elegant, and I want the French people to be proud of me, you know.

It would never occur to me to judge anyone.

I don't read the magazines that make things up about people. I know what the truth is. I don't sort of indulge in my own fodder. I don't really care what they write about me.

I hoped that, you know, France wouldn't mind about, you know, the wife of their president to having a job.

I don't believe in cutting out people from the past. It doesn't give strength; it just gives loneliness.
