To stay interested in acting, I have to keep trying stuff I've never done before.

I never just slide through anything. I explore everything to the fullest, whether good or bad.

I love being a mother. I loved being a daughter, a sister, a wife. I love being a woman with men. I love having given birth.

What I love about photography, and it's the same thing I love about acting, really, is that it forces you, like, right into the moment, where you can't be distracted, where you can't be, like, thinking about other things or ahead of yourself or behind yourself.

Sometimes parts just come along when it's the perfect time for you to do them.

There can be no better measure of our governance than the way we treat our children, and no greater failing on our part than to allow them to be subjected to violence, abuse or exploitation.

Sometimes the odds are against you-the director doesn't know what the hell he's doing, or something falls apart in the production, or you're working with an actor who's just unbearable.
