Tommy [ Lee Jones] doesn't suffer fools easily. I think everybody knows that, but I have great respect for someone that's very direct and very honest. I don't have thin skin so I'm okay with that.

I'm an Academy Award winner. I'm serious.

I never take that for granted, but I'm always very aware that I'm one person and I can't wear everything.

I make a real effort to try and live in the real world and not just the dream world.

I look at my career and how I'm doing it now. I feel like there is something authentic in that process that I still try not to over manipulate. When I feel something, I try to listen to that.

I think today women are very scared to celebrate themselves, because then they just get labeled.
