I think we, especially in American culture, are so afraid to talk about death. And I'm not talking about literal death. I'm talking about shedding skin. I'm talking about rebirth, ultimately, and how we continue to change as human beings and continue to grow. There's that great Henry Miller quote, "All growth is a leap in the dark."
I think it's hard to be taken seriously as a poet, period.
My own personal connection with God was not in a religious sense, so I wasn't really thinking in that way when I got the role and when I started doing it.
I think at the end of the day this movie is respecting what we as women go through as we grow up. The experiences, what we deal with, other women, things about images, things that we deal with as women. This movie addresses that in a very appropriate and sincere way.
This will be the fourth time I've seen this film. I'm very proud of it and I think it's a great movie for women of any age. And almost every single man I've talked to has admitted to crying.
I don't think it's always good to read lots of poetry
A lot of people think I'm cynical when I talk about acting. The truth of the matter is, I just don't want someone to get some lame advice that will send them in the wrong direction
We hung out a lot together. We went and saw films together. It was really actually quite easy. I think we were all very subconsciously connected in knowing that we needed to make it important, and therefore it just became important and it worked. Everybody had a lot of respect for each other. I think respect is the most important thing you can have.
I think I relate to all the characters in one way or another. I'm a chameleon like that
I think any time you have too much education in one certain field, that can sometimes play against you
If it comes back, I think that Friday night is not a good night to be on.
Being a performer myself I can understand that, but I think that poetry, for me, might be less about the performance and more about the words.
I think I might be known for my sarcasm and my humor. And yet I always come off as the sweet girl in things. Even in interviews.
To me, if there is a divine being, I don't understand why our country has had to go through everything that it's gone through in the last four years.
