There's a lot of skeletons in my closet, but I know what they're wearing. I'm not gonna act all ashamed of it.

We're all the same, we all think its better somewhere else; its better being older if you're younger - or its better being younger when we're older.

Never say never - and I certainly don't judge anyone who does it. But most of the characters I play are going through some kind of emotional turmoil, so my job requires me to have expression. If my face was froze, what right do I have to play that part? All the women who haven't done anything to their faces are still able to play great roles. And some of the ones who have done something have messed it up - they look freakish. Anyway, for me it's about playing women with rich lives - and the longer the life, the deeper the wrinkles.

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

I like complicated women. I like women with strength and contradictions.

Liev cares about a lot things. Israel is one of them. We had the good fortune of going there a couple of years ago. To share that experience with him was a great pleasure.

Noah Baumbach writing is really wonderful. I think the way he plays out each character with a unique voice is really impressive, and rhythmically his dialogue works.
