I never knew motherhood could be so truly gratifying until I had Natasha.

The only time a woman really succeeds in changing a man is when he is a baby.

Almost every girl falls in love with the wrong man, I suppose it's part of growing up.

Not even analysis, by itself, can transform you. You must still do the changing yourself.

At night, when the sky is full of stars and the sea is still you get the wonderful sensation that you are floating in space.

For the first time I feel an inner emotional security. There is reality and dependability. My life revolves around Richard and the baby.

Stardom is only a by-product of acting. I don't think being a movie star is a good enough reason for existing.

I've been terrified of the water, and yet it seems I'm forced to go into in on every movie that I make.

My mother used to tell me, No matter what they ask you, always say yes. You can learn later.

I couldn't even go to the bathroom alone. My mother or a social worker always went with me.

If I didn't believe in what I'm doing, I'd rather go to work in a dime store.

WE ALMOST NEVER think of the present, and when we do, it is only to see what light it throws on our plans for the future.

You remember where you were doing each scene. 'Oh my God, it was so hot that day.' It's kind of cool to see a movie that you haven't seen in a long time and reflect on that stuff.

Physical pain however great ends in itself and falls away like dry husks from the mind, whilst moral discords and nervous horrors sear the soul.

The fact is, we sometimes read Scripture, thinking of what it ought to say, rather than what it does say.

See, food I can talk about. I'm Italian, I know the food.

I knew when I was a kid that I had a Broadway voice. I wanted to be a rocker, because I grew up in that era of transistor radios at the beach.

Faith is making claims to victory before it is achieved.

I have heard people say that they drink to forget their sorrows but the more I drink the more sorrows I collect

You can still practice to be a better and kinder and happier person. That's perfectly possible.

I want to release another CD this year, finish writing a screenplay, and make another short film
