More quotes by Diane Lane
I think that directing is the ultimate martyred task of filmmaking, that it has nobility to it. It takes three years to make a film, for the most part. I think it requires the attentiveness of a mother hen. I don't know how people raise children and direct films. I'm sorry, I don't know, how can you be good at both?

Diane Lane
Every film is its own experience, its own planet, its own family. It seems infinite when you're working on it, and then it's suddenly very finite, and it's done.
Diane Lane
There is something wonderful about coming to terms with time - that it is finite. You want to have as much joy in your life as possible, and you take responsibility for your own joy.
Diane Lane
For me, going away to work is the hardest part of my life and career.
Diane Lane
I would say chemistry between two people is very powerful. You have to fight to keep it, but if you don't have it, you can't manufacture it.
