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.

More quotes by Diane Lane
Blessings come in disguise. And challenges can be a blessing.
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
One of my favorite parts of myself is my motherhood aspect, it just turned out to be the best thing about my life [Laughs], the most rewarding and deepening, so I have a delight in portraying mothers.
Diane Lane

I take comfort that aging happens to everybody. It's part of life. Aging offers great lessons in dignity, since the indignity wins in the end. Yes, it bothers me when I have lines or puffiness or droops. But it connects me with the human race. Like weather bringing people together, aging brings people together.
Diane Lane
Because that's what intimacy is: It's a willingness to be vulnerable, a willingness to bite my tongue and a willingness to set an example of what I believe in.
Diane Lane
I love the rebelliousness of snail mail, and I love anything that can arrive with a postage stamp. There's something about that person's breath and hands on the letter.
Diane Lane
I don't really know how to relate to a long-term day-in day-out kind of comfortable relationship.
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.
Diane Lane
But I do love horses. They are such an expression of joy.
Diane Lane
When I was about seven, I started touring the globe as part of New York's La MaMa theater company - without my parents!
Diane Lane
I wish I could always look like I've just finished a really good laugh.
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
