The high-grossing films are not all that interesting to me, I have to say. It's not stuff I would want to be in. Yes, you would want the big paycheck, but that's never really been my concern.

Is it harder having kids and working? It definitely is, but the payoff is you get to go home to your kids, and it all balances out. And I know I'm a better mother when I'm engaged in something outside of the house.

An addict is an addict. If they're not acting out in one area, it tends to come out in another. I think there was a time when I considered myself a work addict, but that's no longer accurate.

I really am profoundly grateful just in general in my life. I've had an embarrassing amount of good fortune.

I'm a very ritualistic, routine-oriented person, and I discovered over the years that I love working Monday through Friday.

I’m not sad about any of my life. It’s so unconventional. It doesn’t look anything like I thought it would.

I've never been all that interested or aware of what people are thinking about me or saying about me. I think that has kept me safest and sanest.
