I regret that I wasn't the kind of person who could enjoy celebrity. It embarrassed me too much.

The little things that made up the fabric of the first six years of my life were suddenly ripped away, and I didn't have anyone around me who loved me. Not one single person.

I never will have peace of mind. I'm not constructed that way. Some things in life can be horrible.

As I became very defined in my personal politics, I turned down some films that I slightly regret now; I'm not going to say what they were.

My family said that I wanted to act even when I was a child living on a tea plantation in the jungle in India.

I don't think I would have been a good mother. Being a parent brings immense responsibility. It's a Herculean task. It would be almost too much for me.

Happiness is the absence of suffering. I think it's an interesting way of looking at it. I think the absence of suffering exists very rarely in the world we live in.
