What Jeanne Said

The Guardian has a great quote from the actor Jeanne Moreau whose death- aged 89- has just been announced.

Asked whether she felt nostalgia for the French New Wave she replied-

“Nostalgia for what? Nostalgia is when you want things to stay the same. I know so many people staying in the same place. And I think, my God, look at them! They’re dead before they die. That’s a terrible risk. Living is risking.”
