"I believe actors are the instrument in the hands of the directors, and I like directors more than actors." --Asia Argento in VANITY FAIR, July 1997
"I never wanted to be an actress--I wanted to be a writer. But I'm not Dostoyevski, y'know? So, that's why I'm an actress. It's like being a violin--if you're a good violin and it's a good guy playing you, then it's going to be fine. If you're a good violin and somebody bad is playing you, that's not that good. If you're a bad violin and somebody good is playing you, then maybe you have a chance, I don't know." --Asia Argento in MOVIELINE, April 1997
"I was struck immediately by this smoky, textural voice that Asia has...Asia was probably just four lines into the scene when I fell to my knees behind the monitor saying "Yes! Yes! Yes!'
