I've been overwhelmed; I was a single mother for a time.

Well, I'm a consumer as well. I go to the movies with my popcorn and believe everything I see.

In a collaborative environment directors hire actors because they want their input, not just their bodies.

I do come shackled with whatever people think I am.

I just think we're living in a time of massive, amazing change, like the Industrial Revolution on acid.

I can't wait til I get the chance to be a character and how my face looks isn't the first consideration.

The least consideration of any film I've ever worked on is who is right for it.

You know, I change my hair color a lot, I do all sorts of different things.

Cause I won't repeat myself, the way I dress and look.

My idols are all older.

That's where I got my start and where I'll continue to work, but I can't tell you the number of films between Drugstore Cowboy and Curly Sue that I auditioned for and wanted that didn't choose me.

I'd rather see your honest pain than a brave front.

Words of others, helps weave our feathers.

You should be the stupidest person... if you kill somebody and you don't know what to do with her/his... body.

You don't need endless time and perfect conditions. Do it now. Do it today. Do it for twenty minutes and watch your heart start beating.

The person who designed a robot that could act and think as well as your four-year-old would deserve a Nobel Prize. But there is no public recognition for bringing up several truly human beings.

I was very driven to act from a very young age, and my parents were not only tolerant of that drive but also encouraging.

Beauties that from worth arise are like the grace of deities.

When I am not too sad to listen, music is my consolation.

I'm an actor - I want to be known for that.

There's nothing more dangerous than a resourceful idiot.
