TV is sort of the only way to go for an actress my age to make a decent salary; with independent films, you just can't.

To work with a director that has emotional commitment and passion toward the characters, and the piece, and the experiences, it only enriches your work.

There's something magical still about it when I get in a darkroom, and you've shot a roll of film and you develop it and you look at your negatives, and there's like imagery there. That always stuns me.

I never felt like I belonged in Minnesota when I was growing up there. That's why I was out the door as soon as I turned 18.

I could be making a lot more money now if I had chosen a different kind of movie, but none of that matters to me... I've done the parts I wanted to do.

The thing with psychoanalysis is I know basically what happened in my childhood. I know where things went wrong and I know what my mother said at one point and what my father said at one point.

All through life I've harbored anger rather than expressed it at the moment.
