My intent is to speak on behalf of those whose voices are less readily heard - children and women at risk

If you're upset with how you look at 25, life's going to be tough.

Really, for me, it's important to know who's pitching and who's catching - just what that scene is supposed to accomplish in terms of storytelling. That being said, on the day, basically what you're trying to get yourself into an open place. And if the character is in a state of anxiety or vulnerability, you try to find some touchstone.

At the end of your life, you are going to want to know that you made some kind of difference.

How will the bombing of Baghdad, a city of five million, accomplish a regime change?

It is important to have a woman editor. Movie is an industry where it is predominantly women. Male editors might cut out pauses that are interesting, while a woman might not be afraid of that pause. Trying to do a movie with an editor who is not funny is impossible. There are certain talents that go with certain genders.

That's the thing about independently minded children. You bring them up teaching them to question authority, and you forget that the very first authority they question is you.

Certainly, if more people were smoking instead of drinking, people don’t get mean on weed, don’t beat up their wives on weed, and don’t drive crazy on weed. They just get hungry, don’t go out of the house, or laugh a lot. I think it would make for a much more gentle world.
Susan Sarandon
I believe in using words, not fists.

Any time you step forward, someone gets upset.

The trouble with being an activist is you end up like Eve and you get kicked out of the Garden of Eden. You know, Eve was the first person who thought for herself. And she still gets a bad rap. I named my daughter after her.
Susan Sarandon
I feel my family's needs are a priority. I'm not comfortable with the idea of serving the many and ignoring my family.
Susan Sarandon
When my children wake up in the morning they know they will eat breakfast, get hugs from their parents, go to a good, safe school. Plates are full and store windows are glittering. But at the same time the great majority of the world's children and women stand - no - shiver on the precipice
Susan Sarandon
It's not enough just to be in a panic. We don't have the luxury to be depressed about Trump. We have to look at issues like health care and the price of pharmaceuticals, the $15 minimum wage and things that actually make a huge difference in a lot of people's lives. That's feminist.

We were friends with Jonathan Demme. We were all down on the West Side of New York, and I think I met Kurt Vonnegut through Edith Demme. And then I was lucky to do Who Am I This Time? 1982, which was an adaptation of his short story that Jonathan Demme directed with Chris Walken and I, and that really cemented the friendship.

If sexuality means saying yes to life, then you should be able to remain sexual until the day you die.

When you run into someone in NY it is usually a pleasant surprise. When you run into someone in LA you usually had a car accident.

I think looking at your own life, on- and offscreen, you can motivate anything, or you can delude yourself into anything.

By the time I went to the Catholic University of America, which was the time the priests were all leaving with the nuns, the more I studied about the Bible and how it came about, the more I lost my faith.
Susan Sarandon
There wasn't space to mood-up. I think Rose Byrne was just extraordinary. Talk about a character that could be really unsympathetic at times. She just jumped in these scenes that go from anger to hysteria to crying to laughing and back to anger. I just marveled.
