I have to do two things at once or I get tired.

There's no journey worth taking except the journey through one's self. That's the most important journey you take. I found that out as I went around the world many times: I was learning about me.
couple thinking impact
I think when I was in my early twenties and middle twenties I didn't even know I wasn't living up to my potential. A couple of friends told me I wasn't and told me to get my act together, and it made a huge impact on me.

I think people will become more and more aware that we are all more than we seem.
journey vacation would-be
I hoped that the trip would be the best of all journeys: a journey into ourselves.

You have to be talentedly insecure in order to be a good actress. And then it's the director's job to make you more miserable and get a good take.

New York is the perfect town for getting over a disappointment, a loss, or a broken heart.

I think we have to do something about the environment and how we are polluting the planet.

I was always a character actress and never a sex symbol. Even when I was the leading lady, I was a character actor.

I've made so many movies playing a hooker that they don't pay me in the regular way anymore. They leave it on the dresser.
