The older you get, the few slumber parties there are, and I hate that. I liked slumber parties. What happened to them?

It's been such a struggle to learn all that I have; I wouldn't want to give any of that knowledge up. That's why I've always loved acting; as a kid, I didn't necessarily like my real life, so I could escape into these other characters and experience a life completely different from my own.

I don't know anybody's road who's been paved perfectly for them, there are no manuals, you don't know what life has in store for you.

In a world and a life that moves so fast, photography just makes the sound go out and it makes you stop and take a pause. Photography calms me.

Going back to Georgiana Drew and John Drew, and my great-grandfather Maurice Barrymore, and it was such a sort of circus of odd, interesting people that loved acting.

My favorite thing about being a mom is just what a better person it makes you on a daily basis.

I can tell when an actor's forcing tears, and it's tricky because you then have to film it and edit in a certain way to skirt around the issue.
