Independent films have a very different cachet than success films.
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?

I'm not a bad parent and partner, even if I make a thousand mistakes.

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

When I really young yet feeling very old, I offered up a lot of myself to the press I knew it was good copy.

You'll never have any mental muscle if you don't have any heavy stuff to pick up.

For me, I don't even like to promote my films but I have to because it's in the fine print of my contract.

Image
What happens between action and cut for me is a blur, I go almost into a whiteout, and then I see the film and I'm like, Oh that's what I did? Cool!
Diane Lane
Image
I think I'd be in an entirely different business if it were easy.
Diane Lane
Image
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
Image
You can only be a virgin once. There can only be one first time.
Diane Lane
Image
Blessings come in disguise. And challenges can be a blessing.
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 think that anybody that smiles automatically looks better.
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
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 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 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.
