Image
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.

I'd always wanted to act, but it was a question of whether acting wanted me and whether the movies wanted me.

Age is not enviable in America. It's not applauded all that strongly. You have to take it all with a grain of salt.

Image
I'm not all that big on rides. I sort of like bumper cars but I don't really go to Disneyland all that much unless if have nieces and nephews or people to take.

It's certainly what I like best about getting older. You're not up for grabs for criticism anymore. You make a decision, it's made, it's fine, you don't have to go back and rework it. You don't have to apologize.

I was always reticent about taking offerings from my father, and I think it was maybe because I felt the caveat was that I had to give something back, and I didn't like that position. But I've never felt incumbent on anyone to kind of keep them lifted or to support them, necessarily. I do that by wish or by option.

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.

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.

I don't think it's necessarily healthy to go into relationships as a needy person. Better to go in with a full deck.

I am a person whose father had no religion but who went to the nuns for a couple of years. And I think I'm the same: On one hand, I pray on the other hand, I don't believe. I am constantly between the two.

I read much more that I do anything else. I don't watch too much television, because I like books.

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.

One of the difficulties of being a writer must be that you create drama that you can't live out. That's one of the wonderful things about acting.

Writing must certainly be one of the hardest professions - writing and painting.

It was great to work in Ireland because it's such a beautiful country, but it's not particularly easy to film in because the weather changes all the time.
