It's such an amazing thing to be loved for who you are.

I started out in stand-up when I was 18, which is really masochistic, and I did it really till I started going in movies. I did it for about three years out in LA.

I don't believe in careers. I believe in work. I'm not interested in some 'big picture that would be really good for me'.

I want to start a trend of women as we really look. Some good things, some not so good. I am tired of looking at frozen faces.

It's inconceivable to some people that that wouldn't be the sexiest thing to do in the whole world: to be a movie star, and make money, and be pampered, and whatever.

There's a small club of women who are willing to age.

I was shooting one day and it struck me that I was the age that Shirley MacLaine was when she played my mother. I had to sit down. I had to get a chair, okay? It was a weird moment.
