I learned early on that there are certain things you can control in the press, and things you cannot.

In my own life if I knew I was going to pass away I'd love to sit down and resolve every issue so I could go peacefully.

I've always thought of, of a relationship with an actor to an audience as a marriage, you know. And a story, you know. And there are ups and downs, and you work through them, and you work with them.

I was just thinking of James Dean and Marilyn Monroe and how young they were when they died. I would like to be a pop icon who survives. I would like to be a living icon.

Life is overwhelming. Life is not easy. Life is tough and you need something that really works and helps you actually, not promises to help you, then fail.

I've never had that concern of thinking of myself as stupid.

You can't control the quality of projects that are coming to you, so if you get several in a row that are quality, you take them.
