You write your life story by the choices you make. You never know if they have been a mistake. Those moments of decision are so difficult.

I've always found as an actress that the best thing to do in film or TV or theater is just to lose yourself in it. Think of the story, the character, the worlds we're in, and forget everything else.

Flesh sells. People don't want to see pictures of churches. They want to see naked bodies.

I learned quite early on in life that we are all two people. And one of those people none of us will ever know.

I became an actress because I discovered the world of the imagination when I was about 14 or so and the concept that you could engage in this amazing world of storytelling. I saw a production of Hamlet, and I didn't know Hamlet died in the end.

You know, you have to allow life to play itself out, don't you? And one thing you learn is that it doesn't stop. It moves on.

I don't see that anybody needs to earn $12 million for three months' work, quite honestly.
