I've had a little plastic surgery. I've had a little lipo. I've had a little Botox. And you know what? None of it works. None of it.

So, take what's inside you and make big, bold choices and for those who can't speak for themselves, use bold voices and make friends and love well, bring art to this place and make the world better for the whole human race.

I used to dream of being normal. For me, if Kirk Douglas walked into the house, that was normal.

I feel very positive where I never did before, and I think that's all a direct result of getting sober.

I was doing a children's book on self-esteem, and I really felt like I wanted to shed the shame I'd been feeling - and maybe make it easier for women my age who had probably felt bad about themselves.

It's not that I'm retired, I just no longer accept acting work.
