A strong man doesn't have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn't match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.

I’m the type of person that tries to fall back asleep in the morning just to finish a dream.

There is a need for aloneness, which I don't think most people realise for an actor. It's almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you'll let the whole world in on only for a moment, when you're acting. But everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like sort of a chunk of you.

You might as well make yourself fly as to make yourself love.

A career is born in public - talent in privacy.

It stirs up envy, fame does. People feel fame gives them some kind of privilege to walk up to you and say anything to you - and it won't hurt your feelings - like it's happening to your clothing.

I lay in bed at night crying to myself. The only one who loved me and watched over me was someone I couldn't see or hear or touch.
