I am dedicated to ensuring reproductive health and freedom for all.

It begins and ends with money. It's absurd in this day and age when we need so much money for education, health, for people, that a $100 million dollars can be spent on a film. It's obscene

I think my mission is to become the greatest human I can. I know that sounds pompous, but what else do we have?

You’re not too smart, are you? I like that in a man

I do not admire young actresses whose foreheads cannot move.

What makes me angry? The education of children. How in God's name can you expect to have a functioning society the way we teach our kids?

Crimes of Passion, which is one of the best films I've done, will live strongly in my resume, even though it didn't do well

I rent houses in LA when I'm filming. I find the isolation there terrifying. There's nowhere to go, there's nowhere to be with people. I'm not a beach bunny

If there's any lesson I've learned in the last five years, it's don't be so sure about what lies ahead. There are amazing doors that could open.

My husband and I are building a 'green' house in Santa Ynez Valley. We bought 15 acres and we're going to build a house that's green from the ground up.

I am an "unrealized" character, dramatically speaking.

My first record was about childhood. There were a lot of nursery rhyme and fairytale references; it was all about being naive.

On a good day I write, all day.

When I can't sleep, I always wrap something around my neck and close my eyes and imagine myself being strangled to death. Then I can fall asleep--it feels like sinking deep underwater
