You can't work in the movies. Movies are all about lighting. Very few filmmakers will concentrate on the story. You get very little rehearsal time, so anything you do onscreen is a kind of speed painting.

I wouldn't say anything I ever did in film would be something I'd use the word proud about. I've done better work in the theater.

One doesn't know if one had a happy childhood or not. I don't really know what it means.

I'm not a psychiatrist. I'm not treating patients.

When I have failed as an actor I've always thought it was my fault. But when I direct something, I wouldn't want the actors to think it was their fault.

I don't wake up drenched in sweat because I haven't been on stage in years.

I know I have a fairly strong feminine side. I find myself really distanced from male behavior.
