The roles that I am attracted to are women who try to do something about their lives, and not a woman who waits for some circumstance or man to come rescue her. I have no interest in that.

If a woman can plan when to have her family and how to support a family, huge issue for our economy and our country's well being.

I find the idea of today's icons being teenagers incredibly uninspiring.

The big gap between the ability of actors is confidence.

I never feel more alive than when I'm on stage. On film you feel chopped up, you can be acting from the neck up, or the hand, there is a lot of close up.

My greatest fear when we were doing "Body Heat" was that I wouldn't be sexy. I didn't have a self-image of myself as this alluring, powerful, sexual female.

I have no desire to play most of the roles being offered
