baby hate thinking
I think all actors - they'll hate me for saying this - but we are babies. We like to be loved, and we'll do anything if we're loved.
wise father thinking
My father was extremely loving to me and funny and wise and understanding, and at other times extremely demanding, critical, calculating, exacting. When you're a young woman, I think you want to please a lot, so maybe you accept more of the criticism than you would as an older person. But criticism can be very wounding. It certainly was to me.
funny stupid names
Of course drugs were fun. And that's what's so stupid about anti-drug campaigns: they don't admit that. I can't say I feel particularly scarred or lessened by my experimentation with drugs. They've gotten a very bad name.
america age salt
Age is not enviable in America. It's not applauded all that strongly. You have to take it all with a grain of salt.
ideas feelings would-be
If I were to have any sort of solid idea about which moments were God's manifestations, they would be those moments where one has practically nothing to do with what's going on. It's one of the best feelings in the world.
thinking people role-models
I get irritated when people counsel me on what I should do with my life, or tell me I should get married, or tell me what I should do. I think people have their role models for happiness and it helps if others fit into that.
animal people house
I like things pretty close around me. I like to know that my house is safe, that the people and animals I love are well and happy. I like to feel as peaceful as possible.
fun book reading
I very much like doing voiceovers, and I also like doing readings. I do books on tape and stuff. I have fun with it.
past actors minutes
An actor definitely has to be in the past a well as the present; an actor must react to past experiences every minute, every second.
people bored acting
People say, "Why is it that you love to act?" And you want to say, "Well, most of acting is sitting in your trailer, either bored or worried about the scene coming up." A lot of it is about things you don't really like, so it's a wonder why acting is such a huge draw, why everyone loves it so much.
acting terrible terrible-things
The terrible thing about acting is the stops and starts.
parent pay way
Of wanting to pay my own way. I never asked my parents for money. I preferred to steal from my parents than ask them for money.
acting wanted
I'd always wanted to act, but it was a question of whether acting wanted me and whether the movies wanted me.
book littles television
I have my television, my books and that becomes my little world.
