My career is going better now than when I was younger. Now I get the part. Back then, I'd get the girl.

I don't do it often, but I do cry. I also laugh a lot; people tell me I'm funny and I do like to laugh.

Don't sit as if you have nothing to say. You should be bursting with things to say. You just choose at this particular place and time, not to say them.

You must always steal, but only from the best people. Steal any trick that looks worthwhile. If you see Vivien Leigh or Robert DeNiro or Meryl Streep do something stunningly effective, and you can analyze how he or she did it, then pinch it. Because you can be sure that they stole it in the first place.

You don't sacrifice your individuality; you sacrifice a lot of freedom.

Nobody did a campaign for me. I was nominated out of the blue and won out of the blue. So that was it.

Hollywood is a cross between a health farm, a recreation center and an insane asylum. It's a company town, and I happen to like the company!
