The opportunities I've had to play really complex characters - which haven't been a lot, but some - you never get over them.

When I was born, the doctor looked at my mother and said, "Congratulations, you have an actor!"

I'm an actor. I'm trying to be the character and do what they're doing.

I had to let my ego go a long time ago.

I think when you're reaching outside of something you're comfortable doing, you're just heading towards a light. I don't think you stop to justify it.

There's always been a shortage of roles for three-dimensional women, no matter what age. If you look at the statistics on women in film, be they behind the camera or in front of the camera, and it's pretty nauseous-making. It always has been.

I was just lucky enough to grow up in a time when they actually had drama departments in schools.
