I always get nervous before a kissing scene. I make sure I always brush my teeth and eat lots of fruit and nice foods rather than garlic. I'm terribly self conscious.

I have always been fond of recognizing the spiritual side of someone's personality. It's a very lovely concept.

People are like moths. First they are ugly and awkward, until they break out of their shell and become a beautiful butterfly.

I really want to understand the mind so I can be more comfortable with the way people are. Being comfortable with people is incredibly important.

I'm a total control freak and love to participate in the design of every single aspect of life.

Both of my marriages have taught me the same lesson twice over really harsh: listen to your instincts. Don't be a people pleaser.

I love working with the actors eye-to-eye. I think something gets lost in translation, not only through a monitor, but when you leave the area where the actual scene is taking place.
