I can talk myself so much into my part.

There were people asking 'Can women be funny?' People still ask that. It's like asking: 'Can women breathe in and out?'

I can understand why people get annoyed at being remembered for one thing, but a lot of actors aren't remembered for anything. I don't mind that.

I'm too young at 50. I'm not grown up yet. There's part of everybody like that.

Shakespeare - it's not funny. No matter how they try to make Shakespeare funny, when it's meant to be funny it's not funny.

I think comedy's something you can't learn. It's an instinct, which makes it rather elusive.

Some of the most interesting questions needing to be asked today can best be asked on television, or on stage, and they can be wonderful, great dramas, but they won't necessarily be blockbusters.
