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 do know that we have delusions about ourselves in what we sound like.

I think the most liberating thing I did early on was to free myself from any concern with my looks as they pertained to my work.

And it interferes with your ability to be a good actress if you're constantly aware of yourself as a person. To me, it isn't valuable to think about how I'm coming off all the time if I'm trying to create a character, because that's a process that I love. It's like falling in love and surrendering to another person or a character.

When I was in - at Vassar, and I came from a public high school in New Jersey, there was - that class still existed. I think it's pretty much gone, but there was a way of talking that the private school girls had that was different than the way I talked from New Jersey.

I can't stand most things that I see.

What makes you different or weird, that's your strength.
