Digital doesn't interest me. It's too many steps removed from the actual tactile thing. I still read books. I don't read online.

It [military action on Iraq] makes me feel ashamed to come from the United States. It is humiliating.

I have made decisions based from purely an actor's point of view.

Sometimes parts just come along when it's the perfect time for you to do them.

If I didn't have children I'd be a much better actress. I wouldn't be so distracted. I could pour 100 percent of my energies into it, to promote the investigation which acting is.

Image
Moments of pure happiness...come upon you unexpectedly. Don't be too preoccupied to experience them.
Jessica Lange

One of the things I love about acting is that it reveals a certain something about yourself, but it doesn't reveal your own personal story.

I went to the University of Minnesota to study art. I left the university to come to New York and live in Soho. I got involved with like a small kind of like experimental theater-mime company and we discovered that Étienne Decroux, a great mime, was still teaching in Paris so I went to study with him for several years.

I've got nothing left to lose at this point. The work I've done is out there.

Once I started on 'Frances' I discovered it was literally a bottomless well. It devastated me to maintain that for eighteen weeks, to be immersed in this state of rage for twelve to eighteen hours a day. It spilled all over, into other areas of my life.

So much of my sense of who I am is tied to mothering. When they left home, I fell into a huge, empty, black hole. Your children are grown and your career has slowed down - all the stuff that took up so much attention is gone, and you're left with expansive time and space.

Photography was a blessing because it filled my time.
Jessica Lange
Image
The only place I've felt was really my home is my cabin up north. There's something in the water there that connects me to that place. There's also this sense of isolation and loneliness about it that I've never been able to shake.

There was a period of time when I was very political, when I was at the university. It was like the late '60s, early '70s and I was a dissident like everybody else I guess. Now I follow it but there's nothing that really grabs me. The most fascinating thing to me right now is China.

The worst is when I talk myself into something. Sometimes you take things because you want to work with a certain actor, or you want to work with a director, even if the script or the part's not that great.
Jessica Lange

As an actor, you have to have trust and believe that somebody is taking care of you or watching your back. With a part like this, especially with where we're going with it, I can't pull any punches. I can't do it halfway, especially when you're dealing with madness and this descent into madness.

I never felt like I belonged in Minnesota when I was growing up there. That's why I was out the door as soon as I turned 18.

To stay interested in acting, I have to keep trying stuff I've never done before.

I never think of the future. I never imagine what comes next.
