Don't hit people; don't let it get you too angry; remember that everything you do can and will be used against you. And take a breath and have some perspective.

You always have to create the character from the ground up.

Part of what I enjoy about the theatre and acting is that sense of history.

I was always drawn to tough girls. I liked that domineering thing.

If you are going to remake a film, you may as well remake a classic.

I think that everything I've ever done at some point is part of someone else's legacy.

Style, no matter how outrageous it is, is still an expression of someone's personality. And my personality is somewhere stuck in the classics.
