Jane Birkin : (2)

" I think it’s always good to read local authors or relevant books. In Egypt, I studied hieroglyphics and read everything about the mummies. " - Jane Birkin

" My father was a painter, so I was encouraged to take a sketchbook everywhere. Cameras are perishable, but I still have tonnes of sketchbooks from all the trips I’ve ever been on. It gets you by when you don’t know what to give people as a gift; drawings are good souvenirs. " - Jane Birkin
