To really be known and really let someone else be known is very vulnerable. It's a weird thing. Just being an actress in Hollywood is very vulnerable. To let all these other people decide whether you're really of value or not, you have to really be strong to know that, of course, they have a right to their opinion, but their opinion doesn't matter as far as yourself.

It's important for me as an actor to be able to make a living.

The good news is that we have a very active part of America that wants some radical progress.

I was a single mom at 20. A lot of choices came out of that. I've seen a lot of my friends be in relationships they didn't want to be in because they couldn't leave.

I'm very grateful to have my kids in my life; they're my greatest teachers. But to pretend it's always easy is just not really true.

I'm supporting anyone except Donald Trump.

It's going to take from 40 to 118 years for the pay gap to close for women if we just go along with the status quo, so we need some serious, radical change.
