I got married to Chris Sarandon, who was a graduate student, and he knew everything at that point, I thought, because he was older. He introduced me to poetry and black-and-white movies.

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

I always think that the difference between film and theater is like the difference between masturbation and making love. Because, in film, you just have to get one moment right you're practically by yourself. And in theater, you actually have to have a relationship with the audience.

What is fabulous about gay marriage is that it redefines the gender designated jobs, then you throw in transgender and you don't just have the five primary colors of the crayons. We have to really look at what it means to be a man or a woman in a much more generous and creative way.

I don't like to plan. Very often, for me, acting is like loving it's using the muscle that you use in loving, in that your heart feels open. Physically, you feel open. And so therefore your job is to enter, open, and listen. And see what happens.
Susan Sarandon
What I like about The Meddler style of movie is that it's a fairly lighthearted romantic comedy, but there are hidden moments where something happens that's unexpected, that hopefully have some kind of emotional resonance that you didn't see coming. I love when a film does that.
Susan Sarandon

In terms of our foreign policy, that's where we made a mistake after 9/11. Everyone's going, Why, why, why, and there wasn't any investigation or learning from any of what we had been doing up to that time that had set us up.
Susan Sarandon
If you can just see all the children of the world as your own, all the mothers of the world as you are, we can make a huge difference.
Susan Sarandon
I'm happy to be considered desirable. I love it!
Susan Sarandon
I don't think there's a petty system of heaven and hell. The love of God is much more forgiving. I'm not a believer in a wrathful God at all.
Susan Sarandon
In the U.S., they just want to know who you're sleeping with.

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.

Making love is like hitting a baseball. You just gotta relax and concentrate.
