 I came from dinner, went downtown with my friends, the elevator was down, I ran down the hall toward my room at 10 at night, having had two glasses of wine. |
| People always seem to see echoes of their own lives in my films. |
| I notice now, whatever character in whatever movie you're watching, they have these toned arms and muscles. |
| I wasn't very good about juggling family and my career. I was interested in who was coming to the children's birthday party, what my son was writing. I was thinking about Legos. |
| There's something about soft, unstructured arms that's very beautiful. |
| A woman came up to me after one of the screenings with tears pouring down her face and sobbed, You've defined my entire life for me on the screen. |
| What bugs me is that movies don't reflect how interesting and vibrant women are. We don't treasure women as they get older. |
| I just read that Time magazine cover story with all this information about how you have to have your kids by the time you're 12 or it's all over. Please. |
| There's no environment. Use your imagination. There's no fourth wall, whether it's the first time you've told this story about her life, or the sixth time. |
| I don't like sitting around in my dressing room very much. It feels a lot like theater. |
| I love to swim for miles; I could just go back and forth. |
| Clothes are part of the character. They can't but help inform who you are. |
| I just didn't work that much while the kids were growing up. |
| Well, this would be nice if it worked out, but I'm not selling the farm. |
| I want to be an actress, not a personality. |
| There was just this amazing individuality. It's just a whole different world of optimism and fearlessness, women taking off their bras and dancing around naked, and a political hopefulness and involvement. |
| I like to run, to go down the stairs, I'm one of those kind of people. |
| I no longer say nice things about yoga. I was doing yoga so long before everybody else. |
| I don't theorize too much. I sort of let the experience sink in, and I have to discover what the character is by doing it, and having those thoughts that she's thinking. |
