I still know I have an awful lot to learn, and I hope I'm put in whatever situation it is that's gonna help me learn it, or that I'll get to watch really good people do what they do.

I know what people want to hear is the connection with the son, Roger, when you have a child. I would love to tell that there was an epiphany as to what it is to be a mom, but I didn't feel any difference there.

To be too knowing is a downfall.

Some people's personalities are so compelling that they command attention.

With big, emotional roles it's very easy, especially if you've grown up in the American school of acting, to exploit your own pain. You have to be careful about that, because 9 times out of 10, your pain is not appropriate to the character.

I'm not someone who likes to have my picture taken, let alone see it plastered all over the place.

I always laugh to myself when I listen to some really big A-list star saying that they are just a normal person.
