I want people to treat me as normally as they can. Anybody who doesn't, I feel awkward with.

I find it very easy playing Bond. I think he's hilarious. He gets himself into some extraordinarily funny situations.

I think finding the right person and being with the right person is probably the answer to most things.

When you read a novel, your own imagery is the most important. It's what makes reading such a wonderful thing.

I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business.

You get used to the rejection and you don't take it personally.

I've never really had a desire to do Shakespeare. For me, it's just too many lines.

I stopped worrying about being desired a long time ago.

I love vodka martinis. I know it's a cliché.

I don't say: 'can't do that', 'won't do that'. I've never thought in that way about work.

You need to impress me, outwit me, compete with me? Go ahead, knock yourself out, I have no problem with that at all.

My philosophy has always been, 'do what you love and the money will follow.'

Union of hearts, not hands, does a marriage make, and sympathy of mind keeps love awake.

Consciousness even in my sleep changes primary colors. The features of my face melt like a wax doll in the fire. And who can consent to see in the mirror the mere face of man?

I got drunk when I was five. Everybody gets drunk before they're 21.

I am a Christian, therefore I am a communist.

But sweetly and discreetly love passes from person to person, from heart to heart, or it is nothing worth.

You try to be good, to be good and loving and nice and not hard, not tough, a sweet nice girl, not ugly, not full of ugliness, but people make it impossible.

Great God! This is an awful place.

When Im writing, I spend all my time in The Grocer on Elgin buying ready-made meals; I think they are the only reason my husband and kids havent left me.

The problems of this world are only truly solved in two ways: by extinction or duplication.
