It is a revolutionary experience. That's the best way I can describe it. It transforms you completely, in a second. Nature is very wise and gives you nine months to prepare, but in that moment-when you see that face, you are transformed forever.

We need to stop the dying and start the living; stop the hunger and start the hoping.

I'm not like Puff Daddy, I hold my own umbrella.

I never want to lie about my age. If I look around at the actresses I admire, they are all women who have not fought growing older, but embraced it and been proud of it - women like Sophia Loren or Audrey Hepburn.

When I read a script, I try not to judge the characters. I try to have an open mind and really see what it makes me feel.

I had things with numbers - because I love numbers - but it's not something I'm proud of. I'm proud that I was able to send them away, because you're much more present.

I realized that when two people function well together at work, it doesn't matter if they hadn't seen each other for years. What they had before was still intact.
