acting anne cleopatra frank played sitting somebody totally waiting
It become totally untenable to me that after acting for 25 years - I've played Juliet, Cleopatra and Anne Frank - there I was, sitting in Hollywood, just waiting for somebody to want me.
term
There's no such thing as The Method. The term 'method-acting' is so much nonsense. There are many methods, many techniques.
dad marilyn monroe
My dad treated Marilyn Monroe more like his daughter than me.
bored good
My acting career wasn't going where I wanted it to. I wasn't getting good parts. I got so bored with myself that I started writing.
room
I'd rather not marry an actor because there isn't room in the house for two egos.
great macbeth performance
A great performance like Lady Macbeth may be forgotten. Writing endures.
education far
As far as I can see, about the only thing I've missed is a college education.
ocean wave faster
You can't push a wave onto the shore any faster than the ocean brings it in.
grandma home grandmother
I loved their home. Everything smelled older, worn but safe; the food aroma had baked itself into the furniture.
running horse race
Professionally I felt like a horse running in the wrong race.
girl home meat
I don't know what's wrong with me. When I was a girl they had this aviary in one of my foster homes and I'd go in when no one was looking and put out watermelon rinds to feed the flies. There were all these flies that would have starved if I hadn't, and I'm not even wild about flies. They say it makes you a gentler person if you don't eat meat. But wasn't Hitler a vegetarian?
would-be pieces pay
I was willing to pay any price including subservience to secure this love, hoping that with each piece of myself I gave up he would be so pleased that he, too, would be transformed.
yoga chocolate lots-of-friends
I meditate, I do yoga and I have a lot of friends who are healers.....And if none of that works, I go by a chocolate bar and a bottle of cognac.
