I never took any theater lessons. So when I started to do movies, I was 14.

I'm taking a break from music... everyone was so mean about it and it was so hard that I wanted to die.

I'm not a crazy old cat lady!

I think that everything is part of creativity - the more you create, the more you have ideas, and the more you meet people.

It seems like the more you grow up the more you fear things.

The perfect life would be to have an amazing part every year and to spend all my free time to just write.

I don't really care about making a big movie - I just want to make good ones.

It's so French to be a cat person.

There is a temperate zone in the mind, between luxurious indolence and exacting work; and it is to this region, just between laziness and labor, that summer reading belongs.

The past is the luxury of proprietors.

I always felt like there was a certain standard of music that I had to do from the beginning, even when I didn't have the recognition that I have now.

What we are headed for is a sort of social structure in which the highbrows are the elite, the middlebrows are the bourgeoisie and the lowbrows are hoi polloi.

You’re only limited by your lack of imagination and fear of appearing stupid.

It is very important to me that my songs can sound amazing with a big band or orchestra, but just as powerful and touching with just me and my guitar.
