I wanted to be Katharine Hepburn-ish - there was a bit of nobility about her.

When you have kept yourself isolated, no one relates to you, you have no way of understanding actually who you are.

I have never been beautiful in cliche terms.

I joined the Actors Studio and began to work with Lee Strasberg, and that changed my work.

There are some actors who are my contemporaries who I think of as purebreds and I'm not.

People, I just want to say, you know, can we all get along?

I started to repeat to myself "If I'm not where I want to be, it's because I'm not good enough... yet." Which meant it was up to me.
