It's the desire to study the human condition, the desire for collaboration, to learn and absorb, and to lead a well-examined life.

Divorce is divorce and it's a really tough thing to go through, (But) I'd love to get married again.

I'm not saying it's for everyone, but it's better to be alone than in a lousy relationship.

I do research. I do emotional sort of Method work. Somehow it’s a huge mishmash of things that becomes my own acting process and my own way of navigating through something. But ultimately the desire is to be honest, and for that truth to bleed through into your work and onto the screen.

And I am standing in front of my mother, and my whole life I have wanted to make my mother proud. And now I'm going to make my daughter proud.

~My instinct is to protect my children from pain. But adversity is often the thing that gives us character and backbone. It's always been a struggle for me to back off and let my children go through difficult experiences.~

I refuse to let what happened to me make me bitter.
