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.
Diane Lane
Image
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
Image
I know I've made the right decision when I've followed my heart.
Diane Lane
Image

Diane Lane
Image

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.
