When I was photographed, I didn't feel I was acting. I just felt I was being photographed. It sort of taught me things about myself that I didn't know and was trying to find out.

And it came to me, and I knew what I had to have before my soul would rest. I wanted to belong - to belong to my mother. And in return - I wanted my mother to belong to me.

Throughout my life I have taken detours in acting and writing, but art remains my abiding passion.

A work of fiction is conceived very much the same way as a dream occurs in the mind of a sleeper.

When anybody says, 'Why me?' Why is 'me' exempt?

A home is very, very important to me. But I do change things around a lot.

I do take very good care of myself, and I'm always in love. And by that I mean I have an appetite for life. I'm in love with beauty and things and people and love and being in love, and those things I think, on the inside, show on the outside.
