As you get older, the pickings get slimmer, but the people don't.

I enjoy taking jobs that make fun of me - or me as Princess Leia, or me as the writer, or whatever, as some idea.

I grew up knowing that I had the prettiest mother of anyone in my class.

Part of my gestalt is that I still feel a little bit like a wallflower. Even in my own life. I talk about myself behind my back.

My mom is a little bit eccentric. I mean, she does - she has a lot of unique ideas. For example, she thought that I should have a child with her last husband, Richard, because it would have nice eyes.

My mother had an amazing life, and she's someone to admire.

People see me and they squeal like tropical birds or seals stranded on the beach.
