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

Some people are filled by compassion and a desire to do good, and some simply don't think anything's going to make a difference.

I have four to five months, tops!, per year to give to my acting work.

I had a number of great teachers and the ones that really were the strongest influences on me were women. They were really, really smart and interesting women.

A man has always been seen as someone who works hard and has a full-time occupation. I think women should have the same opportunity and not have any stigma attached to them if they choose to pursue their careers.

Pretending is not just play. Pretending is imagined possibility. Pretending, or acting, is a very valuable life skill and we do it all the time.

If you have a brain, you are obliged to use it.
