I always felt like a successful actor when I got a job.

TV is terrific. It's really fast paced which I find difficult.

Life gets more interesting as it goes on. It becomes fuller because there is perspective there.

I think women are used to stepping up and getting the job done when you need to.

I guess getting older has its benefits, one of them being perspective.

I have to say my background was mostly theatre, which I love, and it took a long time to feel comfortable there. That's probably true of anyone's career.

The work for the actor is always the same. We're looking for a human being. We're looking for believable human behavior.

I can say that I am, by nature, optimistic.

To me, being an actor is the best job in the land, next to being a mother and having a family and a husband. I just think it's the realization of, "Hey, this is the greatest situation in the world."

The great thing about an independent film is that you're too busy working, and you're too busy hoping to God to get it done.

Life's most beautiful and inspiring moments occur at 3am, just prowling, looking for nothing but always finding something.

War pacifies itself.

I feel, for the first time, ashamed to be an American because we elected [Donald Trump].

Although millions of Americans purr with pastel delusions of Mohandas K. Gandhi, those who actually live in the scrawny crank's homeland struggle to throw off the painful aftermath of his quackery.

Better to deserve praise without having it, than to have it without deserving it.

Death to Israel! Death to Israel!

Even my husband is happier when I'm happy. He has always said, "You figure out what you want to do," because he's discovered that personal happiness is connected to everything.

As it is she will probably turn out to be one of these acid-faced virgins that sit behind little desks in public libraries and stamp dates in books.

You shouldn't be looking at the bottom of the mountain. Why don't you try looking at the top some time?
