I made, like, five movies while I was in college. I think they just weren't memorable movies. I've taken breaks as the years have gone on - I burn out every once in a while.

I suppose that's my one little secret, the secret of my success.

There are lots of futurists that spend their whole life trying to figure out who we're going to be in 40, 50, 60, 100 years. That's the great thing about science fiction.

I don't find acting and directing schizophrenic, in any way. I find it completely easy to move between the two.

I am the luckiest filmmaker I know.

I guess I've played a lot of victims, but that's what a lot of the history of women is about.

Part of me longs to do a job where there's not a gray area.
