It is true that in this culture, they throw you out when you get older. I see it all the time, especially in my business. At my age, you're playing somebody's mother - and there aren't even a lot of those roles!

You have to think you're the greatest thing since sliced bread, but you have to know that you're not.

Sometimes you have to make your own opportunities, and that's why I'm on TV. I wasn't going to sit around anymore, waiting for the damn phone to ring. I had to create my own place - I've always done that.

I made a pact with myself a long time ago: Never watch anything stupider than you. It's helped me a lot.

I come from an overly confident place. But I'm overconfident because of feelings of inferiority.

You can't just have a clean public space - you also have to have people willing to use it, and something that will draw them in.

That's the Oscars for ya - you remember who was nominated, but you don't remember who won!
