Early on, I found the attention completely embarrassing. I'd cringe if I saw my picture on the cover of a magazine.

I've never quite understood why people marry; marriage is just an invented structure

I think I've got something when I'm onscreen, but that's nothing to do with acting or talent

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.

I think there has always been an obsession with youth and beauty. What's missing is the equal obsession with respect for…older people…and their wisdom and knowledge and courage.

Some people enjoy celebrity. I admire those who do, because if you're going to go through it, you might as well enjoy it.

It takes me time to realize things; I'm a speedy person but a slow thinker.
