My grandmother had the most dramatic effect on my life because she set me in one direction, and I had to go back the other direction for my sanity, and for my ability to be a social human being.

I love to see actors' work. I love to surf channels late at night and accidentally run into movies I hadn't seen before. It makes me very proud of the profession.

I love doing commercials! Usually, they have enough money that they can take time and photograph it well.

You weren't going to the theatre to change the world, but you had a chance to affect the world, the thinking and the feelings of the world.

I was as content Off-Broadway as I was in a big Hollywood movie, and, I just try to be content wherever I am, you know.

So by the time I got to Michigan I was a stutterer. I couldn't talk. So my first year of school was my first mute year and then those mute years continued until I got to high school.

I don't ever want to be a sentimentalist. I prefer to be a realist. I'm not a romantic really.
