We were wavering around like a ship without a sail.

I'm a born and bred New Yorker. I belong here. Everytime I leave it's like losing a leg.

I am not an 'instant' actor... to really do anything, I've got to try it five or six or a dozen times.

I get very nervous whenever I think about it. I've never done a serious play, and I have such awe of the woman - she's really my only idol. It's going to be a big stretch - certain people come out on stage and your face muscles automatically tense and you get ready to smile.

We were wavering around like a ship without a sail.

Of course I work hard. Why shouldn't I? Who am I to think I should get things the easy way?

I hated the whole idea of being an actress. I used to throw up before every performance and cry afterward.
