Of course I have TIME underneath my belt. It would be a shame to put that to waste. It's bizarre. Who came up with this concept. What happened? When did this happen. We are supposed to be liberated and it seems like we've declined. Someone told me that Mae West did not start her acting career until she turned 40.
We've become such a multitasking society that just paying attention to the road doesn't seem to be that important anymore. I have to remind my kids all the time that that's what you're supposed to be doing in the car.
I think yoga has given me better posture. People don't realise how strong it makes you. You have to use your body weight to hold yourself. As you get older, you're supposed to lift weights, but I find that kind of boring. Yoga is lifting my own body.
In 1984, I starred in 'Greystoke: The Legend Of Tarzan,' my first movie. My lines ended up being dubbed by Glenn Close, supposedly because my accent was 'too southern'. It was completely humiliating at the time. I became a laughing stock. I'm amazed that I managed to pick myself up and dust myself off.
Where I live, the majority of men are married to women their own age.
When I modeled, I lived in Europe and worked all the time. I did runway, and that's all I did.
Women who make the choice to have grey hair - I think that's beautiful.
Looking back, I realise I had to grow up and be responsible at a very tender age.
My mother and grandmother both had beautiful skin.
I still love finding the soul of the characters I play and defining who they are. This to me is my paint set, and the colors are always exciting to choose.
I will do simple cleanses and have a day where I'm quiet and don't talk. I need to have this experience, especially after work has been really intense.
I willingly devoted myself to my children and to my husband. I come from a broken home, and I decided a long time ago that I would put my family ahead of everything.
My children haven't even seen most of my movies.
When the children were little, I'd fly into L.A. for a specific work project, but then I'd leave again, and when I was home, I wouldn't even read a script.
