I see myself first and foremost as a student of expression.

I was a mimic when I was a child. I mimicked the teacher and made friends that way, actually. That was a very subversive activity, because I was a goody-goody who never got in trouble. But if I went off in the corner and mimicked the teacher, people loved it.

You know, real artists, we expose our flaws. We long for intimacy.

I would love to have been a documentary filmmaker; I just didn't have the resources to do that.

What you are will show, ultimately. Start now, every day, becoming, in your actions, your regular actions, what you would like to become in the bigger scheme of things.

Movies, as evidenced by a chorus of protesting and celebrating Americans, influence broader trends.

You hang around actors, or dancers, the minute you sneeze, everybody has a remedy, and we're all on a million different kinds of diets, and different kinds of things that we do for exercise.
