I don't have a lot of physical comedy instincts. I'm more verbal.

I'm just trying to matter and live a good life and make work that means something to somebody.

Sexuality and femininity is an accumulation of age and wisdom and comfort in your own skin.

It's funny that it all becomes about clothes. It's bizarre. You work your butt off and then you win an award and it's all about your dress. You can't get away from it.

Realizing you're not anything special to the kids is always a great sort of reminder that you're just a regular person. A regular embarrassing old mom.

The truth is... I gave my heart away a long time ago, my whole heart... and I never really got it back.

I was always, as a younger actress, very conscious of not wanting to act sexy. I didn't see myself like that. But I think as a woman, you get older, you feel more confident in your sexuality. You're not as intimidated by it, not as embarrassed by it.
