It's interesting, I had absolutely no maternal instinct. I'm much more interested in young people now.

It took a long time to get to the place in my career where I could pick and choose what I wanted to do.

I just never was the marrying kind.

There's a different experience when you're reading a book rather than when you're seeing something on screen. When you're seeing a movie or TV show, it's a three-dimensional experience you're in the middle of, but when you're reading something, you're suppling the reality with your imagination.

I notice that most of the men who tease me about my hair, don't have any.

I've never written a play before, and I'll never write one again. You can quote me.

I've had a long life and a lot of relationships and not one of them do I wish - well, I take that back - there are a couple I could have done without.
