Every film you do, you always look at it and you think, "I could do better," but I'm never going to tell people what I could do better. I think it's up to them to make up their own mind.

Try and withhold your judgment, because as soon as you think you know something, you're shutting down.

The biggest challenge was to make sure that we are looking at things honestly and truthfully. We weren't making an apologist film. That was the toughest part.

I studied fascism when I was at university. My husband's family are German Jews. I'm very close to his grandma and she left Berlin when she was 19 in 1937. So, it's kind of all around me.

I'm a really judgmental person, and it just dumbs everything down. It doesn't create any room for interrogation or investigation.

Please don’t take offense, but I want no part of this family or what comes with it.

I can’t help but to dance!

I feel rejecting rejection is one of the most crucial steps in getting past failure.

When you can look forward, and the road is clear ahead, and now you are going to create something - that's as happy as I'd want to be.

I worked as hard to write the worst film of the year as I did to write the best film of the year.

I do realize that I have a talent for making music. It wasn't anything expected, but I do think it's deserved, if that makes sense.

I mean to prove I mean to move in my own way/ And say I've been getting along/ For long before you came into the play.

My memories of camp - I was four years old to eight years old - they're fond memories.

Just wanting to be more of an example, but letting them know also that I made mistakes when I was a kid; and I'm not expecting you to be perfect.

What a heap of ash most political careers amount to, when one really stops to consider them!
