I spent a lot of time protecting myself. I mean, I've met a lot of extraordinary people over the years - and I just wish I had been able to open myself up to them more.

Robert De Niro is just evolved as a human being. He's a very kind guy. Age has been good for him, in terms of just, he's very kind.

Being a movie star is a rare job. Nobody gives you any guarantees that you'll get to do it forever. It's a very lucky and privileged position to be in.

I hadn't been that impressed with someone since I worked with Meryl Streep.

Some people say they're retired and it means they have time to do things they want to do. I have always had the privilege to engage in my hobbies as if they were work. And they are. So hobbies are work, but work that you want to do; they are play. Retirement? That sounds like you're going to passively walk into the sunset and disappear.

I have younger kids, and I adopted them late in life. They don't know these people [from Annie Hall] at all.

What is perfection, anyway? It's the death of creativity.
