I meditate and pray all the time. The faith and respect that I have in the power of God in my life is what I've used to keep myself grounded, and it has allowed me to move away from the storms that were in my life.

People win 'Oscars', and then it seems like they fall off the planet. And that's partly because a huge expectation walks in the room and sits right down on top of your head.

My whole life I've had the fear that I was going to be abandoned.

We've become obsessed with beauty and the fountain of youth and, frankly, I'm really saddened by the way women mutilate their faces today in search of that.

It is very hard to separate one's self from a character. Sometimes the people closest to me have to be very understanding.

I'm not afraid of portraying anything on-screen

I realize as you age the less makeup you wear the younger you look.
