I don't think I've mastered anything. I'm still wrestling with the same frustrations, the same issues, the same problems as I always did. That's what life is like.

My older kids are fantastic people. It can't be the result of my influence on them.

It's time to change the conversation about nature to focus on what we all have in common: our shared humanity.

Hollywood's got its own particular environment.

[In relationships with a directors] I want to be able to give and take, and I can't name what it is: respect, energy, investment in the task, focus, humor, intelligence, but I always feel responsible for taking the money.

If people recognize me when I'm out in public, I'm very nice to them. I'm very nice to people even when they don't recognize me. I don't even mind if people come up to me while I'm eating dinner, but if they recognize me while I'm having sex, I refuse to sign autographs.

I continue to develop some things for myself and also take advantage of good parts as they come along.
