Women watch plenty of television and theater. They're consumers, like everybody else. I think people don't thinking women go to the movies is a thing that still has to be addressed and changed.

I used to go to rave parties, too, but I was never savvy with techno.

I loved performing; I was always trying to impress my siblings by being a clown. I think that came from being the runt of the litter.

I liked the Beastie Boys and A Tribe Called Quest and Cypress Hill.

You see someone on the street wearing an outfit and then it's on the cover of a magazine. I love. But, you know, I'm Australian, so I'm not too flashy or glitzy.

Anything can happen. Anything happens all the time.

Technology... the knack of so arranging the world that we don't have to experience it.

If you're working with a director you trust, you can turn that part of you off that wants to direct other actors in a certain way.

I'm confident that it is with the strength of the poor that India will move forward.

... for the modern soul, for which it is mere child's play to bridge oceans and continents, there is nothing so impossible as to find the contact with the souls dwelling just around the corner.

Deciding to remember, and what to remember, is how we decide who we are.
