The worst thing you can do as a performer is to judge your character in any way, positively or negatively.

I think if I was ever really going to be more serious about writing I'd have to try and find some way to do it with other people. I do find the silence kind of eerie.

If you read reviews that you think by their very nature are not respectful of the actresses involved or not appreciating the work as it should be, I think you should write to reviewers or comment and say, "Are you kidding me?"

I'd actually really love to review books and films and plays, but you can't be an artist and a critic. I would love it if I could.

I don't really want to do things that I feel like are going to send out a message that I don't really want to sign up for.

I want people to think I'm sexy, but to know also that I've got an ordinary body and not feel intimidated.

You don't have to conform to a very specific aesthetic today, whereas 1950s women definitely had to.
