I am not always happy. I am happy in front of the press. I can be extremely grumpy, ask my husband.

I think that we pay much more attention to fashion and our hair, skin and foreheads, our abdominal muscles and shoes than what is happening in the world. We willingly take that 'drug' and go along with that.

You win an Oscar, it can double the audience that you had before.

Instant gratification is not soon enough.

That is the simple secret. Always take your heart to work.

I believe in a world of opposites and that’s why I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities.

I think we reserve a special place in our hearts for women who dare to try and be powerful, or occupy a special elevated place in society or when they are 'the bosses'. I think we really don't like it as a society and we have a harsh view of them. We look much harder at them, than the millions of men who aspire to the same positions and I can't figure that out.
