I don't think the money people in Hollywood have ever thought I was normal, but I am dedicated to my work and that's what counts.

There doesn't need to be a God for me.

Progress is slow, it is uneven, it is fragile and in some parts of the world it is being erased.

To be in any way a positive contribution, that's all anybody wants to be. It's all I've ever wanted to be. I wanted to be an artist, be a mother. You want to feel that in your life you've been of use, in whatever way that comes out.

To actually feel like you've done something good with your life and you're useful to others is what I was always wanting, and was always looking for.

Love - is when you wish all the best to the people you love, when you put their interests and well-being above their own. Always.

Figure out who you are separate from your family, and the man or woman you're in a relationship with. Find who you are in this world and what you need to feel good alone. I think that's the most important thing in life. Find a sense of self because with that, you can do anything else.
