Success as a woman has changed me. That's what I feel is the first thing. When I feel like a successful woman as a rounded human being, then it feeds my work in a broader way so it becomes more interesting.

I'd like to get my public image nearer to my reality. People have a lot of misconceptions.

The thing about anything in life is you have to get ready for it. Study, learn.

Character contributes to beauty.

I work very hard at relationships. I've done the thing of being home. I worked all day and came home and did all the stuff at home that a woman is supposed to do, the cooking and the entertaining. I'm a perfectionist, and, besides, I loved all those things.

Making the decision to do more serious work raises eyebrows. It's less easy for the industry to deal with.

We all lose our looks eventually, better develop your character and interest in life.
