Sometimes I think all I want to find is a mean guy and make him be nice to me. Or maybe a nice guy who's a little bit mean to me. But they're usually too nice too soon or too mean too long.

I always think of Meryl [Streep] for everything now. There really aren't many actresses around who are truly lucid the way she is.

I don't think 50-50 relationships exist. Men have an incredibly variety of options. It's much harder for a woman to do both things. I think traditional relationships work best.

I always wrote. I wrote from when I was 12. That was therapeutic for me in those days. I wrote things to get them out of feeling them, and onto paper. So writing in a way saved me, kept me company. I did the traditional thing with falling in love with words, reading books and underlining lines I liked and words I didn't know.

I'm in denial in its lesser state. It will take me a second. People around me will notice my mania first. And, my depression.

The only thing worse than being hurt is everyone knowing that you're hurt.

I wanted to be, you know, just no different than anybody else.
