You have to make peace with yourself. The key is to find the harmony in what you have.

What you want, as an actor, is a great leader. I can't bear it when I work with a director who is wishy-washy and says, "What did you think?"

I want collaboration, but if they don't have a plan or their vision isn't clear, it's nerve-wracking. So, someone that's very sure of the vision is what you want, most of all.

There was a time I was very much blaming the way I felt on L.A, that it was a vacuum of creativity, of humor or anything organic, and I was really angry at the place. But then today I feel completely different - I love L.A.!

Directors are our teachers, and I'm always craving to work with a great director. They're pretty much the first thing that interests me about a project.

I think when a man sees a woman who knows what she wants it can be scary, but it can also be tempting.

I think I have better taste now than I did then.
