When I go to where I was getting excellent parts in movies I may have taken a few too soon, too anxious to go back to work and to anxious to make another film and to succeed more.

I work with Sally and I can see Sally doing that. She is very aggressive. Very fun loving and charming... and pushy in a very competitive way and a very healthy way and a very good actress.

I have worked with some great directors.

I didn't have any extra money. But I can't say that I had a hard early career.

I have a theory about that, if you have to say something, if you have encourage for one second a prospective acting student - he should not go in to acting.

The career doesn't get any easier. A career stays tough.

No not pigeon holed me as an actor, or as a character, or as to what I could do - but what I would do... and the fact is the things you don't do are almost as important as as the things that you do.

I was very lucky in as much as I played a lot of tennis.

I think that you get something for your acting from almost anything you do.

I did two or three plays every summer.

It takes a lot of energy to teach.

You don’t make art out of good intentions.

Unless you are ready to give up something valuable you will never be able to truly change at all, you'll forever be in the control of things you can't give up.

I usually don't like to 'spoon feed' my audience, because I grew up idolizing story tellers who tell stories using symbolism, so it was in my nature to do the same.

A woman's heart and a woman's dreams are malleable and can change at any moment. It is the essence of being a woman.

A kiss unlike any other kiss. There was no denying that.

When it comes to poetry, I think partly the numbers of people attempting to write poems is probably a result or the reaction to technology.

Film is a dramatised reality and it is the director's job to make it appear real... an audience should not be conscious of technique.

In the name of God and humanity I protest!

Racism? But isn't it only a form of misanthropy?

It's wonderful that nothing you write is ever going to be as beautiful as what's in your head, because that gap is where the art can enter and begin to stretch its limbs.
