It's always refreshing to step into another time.
Diane Lane
Image
My roles are in some way like children to me. You don't ever really want to scrape one off your shoe.
Diane Lane
Image
Catholics have guilt and Jews have guilt, fine. But mothers can trump them all.
Diane Lane
Image
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.
Diane Lane
Image
I think I'd be in an entirely different business if it were easy.
Diane Lane
Image
For me, going away to work is the hardest part of my life and career.
Diane Lane
Image
If people knew what made hits they'd make more of them, so to have the illusion of control over one's career isn't something I can even pretend to have.
Diane Lane
Image
You'll never have any mental muscle if you don't have any heavy stuff to pick up.
Diane Lane
Image
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.
Diane Lane
Image
When I really young yet feeling very old, I offered up a lot of myself to the press I knew it was good copy.
Diane Lane
Image
But I do love horses. They are such an expression of joy.
Diane Lane
Image
Because I tend to kind of hide under the sheets when it comes to reality television. I've seen probably one episode of maybe five different shows, and that's about it.
Diane Lane
Image
I try not to be overly analytical.
Diane Lane
Image
I don't really know how to relate to a long-term day-in day-out kind of comfortable relationship.
Diane Lane
Image
You can only be a virgin once. There can only be one first time.
Diane Lane
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.
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 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

Sometimes I think opposable thumbs were invented so teenage girls could use text messaging.
Diane Lane
Image
I bought into the myth that you are not complete without romantic love, without a mate. And it can really distract you from your goals. But sometimes you have to take a leap.
