I don't know what it is, exactly, but there's a negative drag on film sets after the second week or so, a mutinous vibe because the infinite capacities of the directors and everybody else become quite finite and everybody's under the gun and it becomes work.

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?

I think the secret to happiness is having a Teflon soul. Whatever comes your way, you either let it slide or you cook with it.
Diane Lane
Image
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.

I think I'd be in an entirely different business if it were easy.

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.

I grew up loving horses. I was relatively obsessed, starting with my rocking horse at age 2, all the way through my painting and drawing phase.

But I do love horses. They are such an expression of joy.

You'll never have any mental muscle if you don't have any heavy stuff to pick up.
Diane Lane
Image
I try not to be overly analytical.

Image
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.

When I was about seven, I started touring the globe as part of New York's La MaMa theater company - without my parents!

My roles are in some way like children to me. You don't ever really want to scrape one off your shoe.

More yoga in the world is what we need.

I can tell you that, you know, when I went to my first movie premiere, it was my own movie, and I wore the best jeans I had and my favorite top. You know, I made sure my hair had some wave in it because I braided it the night before myself.

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.

I loved acting, I started as a child and it is interesting because I didn't compare myself to others that were doing the same thing. I just felt that I needed to stay focused and stay out of trouble.

I wish I could always look like I've just finished a really good laugh.
