Truth is like most opinions - best unexpressed.

The elasticity of Shakespeare is extraordinary.

With people in corsets you need, an hour and a half in you have to give somebody something, you have to have those trays with a little bit of fruit going around or something because you get that blood sugar [dropping] thing, so it's curious because that's in your mind at the same time as you're about to say, 'I think it's about the humanity and the depth of feeling and we need to feel [Cinderella] soul expand and by the way, more cheese for the people in the back.'

Aging is the diminishing of early fearlessness.

Don’t stand up when you can sit down and don’t sit down when you can lie down.

It's very strange that the people you love are often the people you're most cruel to.

It's no accident that Cinderella has been in the culture for thousands of years, and in cross cultures. I've traveled a bit recently, and in Russia, they completely believe they own this tale. And in Italy, they feel it absolutely is part of who they are. There is a timeless web to it.
