When I was 34, people would say, What's going to happen to you when you're 40? What are you going to do? You don't have much time left. And I was like, what are you talking about?

Oh, my career. What career? I'm over 40.

I'm more relaxed about life now that I'm older. I like it-despite the wrinkles. It's what I feel inside that's precious.

I have four kids - they're 19 to 33 - that I love more than anything.

People are not used to seeing an older woman on screen, unless she's playing a character role. Why can't they make a movie about a woman who's forty-five who's falling in love or getting divorced? Why does the leading role always have to be a woman who's twenty-three or twenty-eight?

Angelina Jolie may get Antonio Banderas in bed for eight hours on a movie set, but I get him in bed everyday.

I'm an actress so the amount of rejection and commentary you get right to your face is pretty rough.
