It's so fun to play something that feels reckless - not all the time, but I really must be acting out something that I can't do in real life.

Everything you think you're supposed to feel even, or do. When it doesn't match up with what everything that the culture is telling you to do, you feel like a failure.

There was something about the Cleveland Play House that was the holiest place - you know, with the ghost light on the stage and the brick. It was just the most beautiful theater in the world.

Just looking at each other is something really moving to me, more so than the nudity.

There's something about looking at society's expectation of what [motherhood] is and tipping it.

I have two kids, and when my oldest was first born, it was the most vulnerable feeling in the world. I remember taking him to his first doctor's appointment, and on the sheet, it said "mother," and I put my mom's name. I was like, "Oh, right, I ... I'm the mother!" You just feel so vulnerable.

I'm very tactile. I'm a big hugger, one of those huggy people.
