At the beginning, my ambition was never to break down doors. It was just to earn tuition for myself and work in an industry where women hadn't been allowed or invited. That's all I wanted to do, not thinking that I would make waves, change minds, excite people, incite people, turn on people, repulse people.

I don't know how I did it, but I worked 7 days a week.

I like to do all kinds of films.

If you're stupid and you're arrogant, you're going to get hurt.

I love working with a lot of different films and a lot of different people.

I'm not a total feminist, but I believe in rights for females.

I'm just going to try to do the best work at whatever I'm going to be, and I don't think I'm going to be an actress.
