firing fuller input life nightmare
I think you live a fuller life with someone else, you know, you're firing on all cylinders. It can be a nightmare at times, we all know that, but nevertheless in the end I think to have someone else's input on anything - a book, a meal, your children, life, a walk - is fantastic.
people whatever
I think people should do whatever they want to do. That's the point. Why should you care what other people think or say? You're not living in their pocket.
brought certain children continuity gives life moving people
My children were brought up with their grandparents, and I was brought up with my grandparents. I think the continuity of moving through life together gives people a certain pride and sense of security.
feed system
Eat well and sleep well. That will feed your nervous system and your psyche. As you get older, you look how you feel.
genes good time
I like having a good time. It's probably my mother's Brazilian genes in me - party, party.
coming happened home maintain public rather view
I maintain the rather old-fashioned view that this is my w0rk and it's in the public arena, but that doesn't entitle everyone to know what happened at home before coming here . . .
drama successful victim
I have yet to see a drama that puts forward women who are successful and have a family. Women are nearly always seen as victims.
people age looks
We all know now that people can look good for their age. It isn't so extraordinary, I don't know why people go on about it so much.
believe fixing-things way
I don't believe in expending energy on something you can't do anything about. If there was some easy way of fixing things, I'd probably do it.
regret thinking important
I do think it's important to live in the present because in that way you won't be living in a state of regret.
america luck pushing
It's funny, this thing about happiness. It's a commodity that was imported from America in the Fifties. I see myself simply as living my life. . . . I feel it's pushing your luck to define how happy you are.
strong ghetto years
Roman's wife Sharon Tate had been murdered by Charles Manson the year before, but Roman had been through so much leaving the Warsaw ghetto that he was very strong and private.
work home views
I maintain the rather old-fashioned view that this is my work and it's in the public arena, but that doesn't entitle everyone to know what happened at home before coming here.
giving support goes-on
I go on giving interviews because I've been brought up to support the projects I'm involved in. When you've enjoyed working on a production, you want to do them a favour.
