I'm kind of a recluse.

Since Star Wars, that film's success led to bigger budgets, more hardware, that the great movies like the ones I did, which were studio movies, are now independent movies. They range from half a million to several million, and a lot of those have very interesting roles.

I'm still the little southern girl from the wrong side of the tracks who really didn't feel like she belonged.

I like being very busy. I think that's the definition of stardom, really. It's energy. It really is.

It's interesting as one grows older to keep in touch with the cutting edge.

When I think of Peter Wolf I always remember the Portuguese proverb: 'Never say you will not drink from that glass again.'

It's true, I did a lot of great movies, and I'm happy. It was what it was, and now I think all of that has fed into where I am now, and I think it has taught me a lot.
