I'm not like anyone. I'm me.

A strong film director does leave you to your devices. A strong director allows you to be free and you trust that he's there and he will tell you if you've gone too far. A strong director allows you to be much more experimental and take greater chances than a director who isn't secure within himself.

You can always avert throwing yourself in front of an oncoming train. There is something that just pulls you away - and it has pulled me away, because I'm not dead yet - just at the brink of impact. Sometimes I have been really grazed by that train.

There's still so much more to do. I can't sit back and be complacent, and none of us should be. I get around now in a wheelchair, but I get around.

I've always sung in the shower. Now I make the stage a mental shower in order not to get too uptight and enjoy it.

When people say, 'She's got everything', I've got one answer - I haven't had tomorrow.

I haven't read any of the autobiographies about me.
