Fear focuses the mind.

Enough people write about me every day without even interviewing me.

Show business has been really, really good to me because I can work and take a lot of time off, and I'm extremely undisciplined person.

Having been let out of the barn once, I know I wouldn't be happy if I were home all the time.

For young women, I would say don't worry so much about your weight. Girls spend way too much time thinking about that, and there are better things. For young men, and women, too, what makes you different or weird-that's your strength. Everyone tries to look a cookie-cutter kind of way, and actually the people who look different are the ones who get picked up. I used to hate my nose. Now I don't. It's OK.

In my own experience of male and female directors, people have a much, much harder time taking a direct command from a woman. It's somehow very difficult for people.

If you make the tough decisions, people will hate you today. But they will thank you for generations.
