I think movies probably are a mirror in some way so we can see ourselves in them.

I honestly do not think about celebrity or image or sexual expectations on me. It only comes up when people have a list of questions. But what I am told is that there is a quality that I have onscreen, where it's a little bit of everything.

Anything that's expanding the mind and heart is happiness. But it's not a goal.

If the United States marches into Iraq without the backing of the United Nations, that will be done entirely without the backing of the American people.

I know who I am. No one else knows who I am. If I was a giraffe, and someone said I was a snake, I'd think, no, actually I'm a giraffe.

I find that you can use an acting technique when the thing isn't working, not that you make the technique the end result of your work. You use the technique when you're in trouble and things aren't flowing the way they should. It's a way of fooling yourself to make it work again.

I have a lot of beautiful friends.
