I've been directed by other actors, and being an actor doesn't make you a good director.

My profession is about as far away from growing up in southern Illinois as you can get.

I've loved every minute of every hour I've spent doing theatre.

I almost never give interviews. It's not because I want to play hard to get. It's just that I never seem to have anything interesting to say.

Theater opened up a whole new world for me. It was a freedom I'd never known before.

When I go to see something I'm in, or my friends are in, it's like a home movie. When I just go to the movies and don't know anyone in it, then it's a real movie.

I'm happy whenever I'm in a rehearsal room. I've always gotten all my energy and creativity in there.

I was too practical to major in theater. Acting - what was I going to do with acting? There was no future in it.

I like to play a wide range of characters. The more they're unlike me, the better I like it.

I was an office secretary for a long time. A good secretary.

I don't like working in front of a camera.

Audiences who behave obscene toward prominent people have no clue that their opinions can result others to have a bad impression on them.

Dorothy did not feel nearly so bad as you might think a little girl who had been so suddenly whisked away from her own country and set down in the middle of a strange land

Kiss me with your eyes.

Don’t grow old to give up and don’t give up growing up

The solution of logical problems must be neat for they set the standard of neatness.

By perseverance the snail reached the ark. A mouse may find a hole, be the room ever so full of cats.

I am woman, hear me roar, in numbers too big to ignore, and I know too much to go back and pretend.

The chief virtue that language can have is clarity.

Ah, a German and a genius ! A prodigy, admit him !

I love being backstage, or doing littler things like Blame Canada.
