Start to become active in what u love DOING. People admire action, courage&real happiness far more than they admire a size 2

People go to movies or listen to music because they want to be inspired.

When I was in high school I moved from the big city to a tiny village of 500 people in Vermont. It was like The Waltons!

Without vulnerability, you're not really alive.

I've been acting since I was a little kid. It was my escape from my day which had to do with a father leaving, and a mother not being home, and her struggling and doing her best and all that. But it wasn't fun. I would go into theater class. If she were a stay-at-home mom, I wouldn't have that discomfort inside that kept me pushing.

Whatever the emotion is, I have learned over the years to give it space, which is also why I love acting.

Before I do a movie, I watch Meryl Streep movies over and over. It's not to mimic her. It's to remind myself to be more committed.
