I prefer to think of the audience as a single living organism with which I am sharing a singular, never-to-be-repeated experience.
Martha Plimpton
The '80s to me, more than anything else, represents a time of real criminal activity in the office of the president: an incredibly disparate economy in terms of the class distinctions and whatnot, and a tremendous shallowness - a lot of sort of bank robbery by executives.
Martha Plimpton
People seem to think that you should be willing to speak to them whether they're jerks or not.
Martha Plimpton
That's the thing about interviews, at some point you're going to change your mind. But it's there forever and you can't escape it.
