I like to work with really good professional people - anyone with real talent.

the real stakes in the theater are high - they are life stakes. That's what I love about it. You gamble with your life, and that's a gamble worth taking.

The early romance was the most romantic experience I have ever had in my life - far surpassing anything I might've dreamed of or imagined, it was quite amazing. When you are young and it's your first love and you are just carried away by it and that's all you can think about.

The reason you get married is to be together, not to be separated.

There are guys who want to screw around all the time, which interests me not at all. God knows we've done that, been there, and we don't want to do that any more.

I'm a total Democrat. I'm anti-Republican. And it's only fair that you know it... I'm liberal. The L word!
