I own one pair of Prada shoes. They make my feet hurt... It's not the shoes' fault; they are exquisitely made. I blame my feet. I've got my mother's feet.

I feel like I run a business although I haven't one. It's planning, planning, and planning.

I would like Martin Scorsese to be interested in a female character once in a while, but I don’t know if I’ll live that long.

I believe in imagination. I did Kramer vs Kramer before I had children. But the mother I would be was already inside me.

Listening is everything. Listening is the whole deal. That's what I think. And I mean that in terms of before you work, after you work, in between work, with your children, with your husband, with your friends, with your mother, with your father. It's everything. And it's where you learn everything.

Some men can maintain cragginess and weary masculinity. Women just get old.

My advice: Don't waste so much time worrying about your skin or your weight. Develop what you do, what you put your hands on in the world.
