Well, right now, I'm very fascinated with 1920s Berlin. I mean, probably the more interesting thing would be to go to the beginning of civilization or precivilization - like polytheistic times.

I thought Hillary Clinton was remarkably elegant and intelligent and focusing on the issues even though her opponent was trying to bring the talk always to vulgar, low levels. Even his presence was bullying, was lurking, and was just mainly creepy.

Girls have girl/guy relationships because we are expected to be so emotional and sensitive and stuff, and sometimes you just don't feel like being that way.
Natalie Portman

I don't know if the scripts are changing so much. I mean, I've been working for almost 25 years and made over 40 films and I worked with my first female director, on a feature, Planetarium. And it's still the only one.

I've stood up to producers before, and even a director. I saw them being abusive. A lot of people on the set are scared to say stuff when they're not being treated right.

Accept your lack of knowledge and use it as your asset.

I couldn't be anorexic because I like food too much, and I couldn't be bulimic because I hate throwing up too much.

The moment you buy into the idea that you're above anyone else, is the moment you need to be slapped in the face.

You know, I get much more Jewish in Israel because I like the way that religion is done there.
Natalie Portman

The only place I am recognized all the time is in L.A. and otherwise, it's only about once a day. I feel pretty anonymous.

Ninety per cent of how you learn is watching great people. When you are surrounded by good actors it lifts your performance.

I was definitely different from the other kids... I was more ambitious. I knew what I liked and what I wanted, and I worked really hard. I was a very serious kid.
