You have to put your ego aside as an actor. Or you're using your ego to tell the story. Your body is a part of a tool to tell the story. So if you feel something, it's wrong. It means you're not inside of the character.

You make your own path as an actor. Nobody does it for you, so you have to invent yourself.

I sometimes feel like I could do another job. Anything. Maybe because as an actress you're playing different characters, everything feels possible.

I have stories that I'd like to maybe one day consider directing, but you need a lot of time to write and put it together.

If you have everything, then you don't want to go on. It's the lacking that makes you search for something better.

My aim was never to be an American star; otherwise, I would have moved to Los Angeles.

I never felt being an actor or making a movie was an easy thing to do.
