What I have always loved most in men is imperfection. I get moved by the wrinkles on the throat of a man. It makes me love him more. I think it is sad that more women don't take the chance that maybe men will be moved by seeing the chin a little less firm than it used to be, that a man will be more in love with his wife because he remembers who she was and sees who she is and thinks, God, isn't that lovely that this happened to her. And be moved by life telling its story there.

Sometimes I get a little tired of it. But you know, what a privilege, to get tired of working with Ingmar Bergman.

I looked into the mirror and saw this middle-aged woman who keeps invading my face.

It is only the untalented director who imagines him or herself in every part, wants his or her own thoughts and emotions portrayed; it is only the untalented who make their own limitations those of the actors as well.

It's better to wake up alone knowing that you're alone, than waking up with someone and still be lonely

Life experiences become acting experiences, which in turn become life experiences.

I have the experience of age and suffering.
