I'm a pain in the ass to all of the costume designers with whom I work because I have very strong feelings about the subject.

I've grown up well, partly because there weren't great girls' literature - Nancy Drew, maybe - but there weren't things. So there was Huck Finn and "Spin And Marty." The boys characters were interesting and you lived through them when you're watching it.

How you first meet the public is how the industry sees you. You can't argue with them. That's their perception.

Every single decision I make about what material I do, what I'm putting out in the world, is because of my children.

Jumpsuits for men are always so difficult when you get to that one area.

She [Barbra Streisand] was just - we can't know what we mean to each other. You know, artists, you can't know - you can't know that, but she was really important.

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.
