I'm always amazed at how consistent people find me and my behavior, when in fact I do feel different all the time.

When I was very young I never thought I was attractive, because I was a tomboy and I was always the biggest girl in the class.

De Niro is a classic example of somebody who is iconic and who sort of effortlessly puts actors at ease the moment you meet him. I think it's also just something that he innately does with people.

I'm afraid to be alone, I'm afraid not to be alone. I'm afraid of what I am, what I'm not, what I might become, what I might never become. I don't want to stay at my job for the rest of my life, but I'm afraid to leave. And I'm just tired, you know? I'm just so tired of being afraid.

I like understanding what's underneath, what's really motivating people. When I was younger, I wanted to be a psychiatrist, so I think it has to do with that.

I worked so hard for so long - I did a lot of movies. I also worked a lot when my kids were smaller, before they were in school.

You have a choice. It may not be a choice you like, but it is still a choice.
