Once you become a mother, your heart is no longer yours...My daughter is the greatest thing I'll ever do in my life.

My dad had even hired an accompanist to play for me on a piano. But he had never pushed me to music because I don't think he wanted me to be hurt as much as he was if it didn't work.

With some people, that love of music is just buried in them. It's so deep in them that they would play for free because they have to.

Image
I've been so blessed because I've had such longevity. I'm not a big red carpet girl. But I love the work. In this business, you can be at the top of the world and at the bottom of the barrel, and you're grape juice. I've been at both ends. It can make you become what you really are.

When it comes to exchanges with people, I think, the more genuine you can be, the more giving you can be, the more you will, in the end, feel fulfilled.

I didn't really like my birthday as a kid. My mother used to say, Sometimes we'd have a birthday party and you would just wander off. But she said it was just my way in the world. It wasn't anything that I was truly interested in.

I'm a very determined person.
Kim Basinger

I just feel passionately about the horses and I will until it's no longer a tradition in New York.
Kim Basinger
Image
I'm my own worst enemy sometimes when I pick projects.
Kim Basinger
Image
As a child, I was very shy. Painfully, excruciatingly shy. I hid a lot in my room. I was so terrified to read out loud in school that I had to have my mother ask my reading teacher not to call on me in class.

Image
I've played a mother many times, even in tragic things like, I Dreamed of Africa, so I know how it is to lose a child cinematically. I have so much compassion on so many fronts, for women who have lost children or tried for years and couldn't have them.

Parents can be very influential in designing those little creepy-crawlers that jump around in your mind for the rest of your life. It's the fear of not being good enough.

It can hit at any time [anxiety/panic attack]. You feel like you're in an open field, and there's a tornado coming at you. And you're just consumed by it.

If you could see or feel the suffering you wouldn't think twice. Give back life. Don't eat meat.

My dad studied at the American Conservatory in Chicago, so he lived on all those streets. He said the war probably saved his life because he'd have ended up a dead musician, with all the crazy stuff they did on Rush Street back in the day.

I'm not too in love with the word ambition, but I was driven.
