There's a lot about the character. It doesn't always happen, but there are some characters you really create a relationship with, almost as if they were your friend. And you never get into their heads again or think like them.

I think if I was not in love, I would probably let myself go faster. Love gives me the vanity to continue.

No woman has to be a victim of physical abuse. Women have to feel like they are not alone.

I'm suspicious of people who talk about their feelings to the whole world

When you are passionate about life, it keeps you young. Sometimes I wake up at 4:00 am just to see how my roses look.

I realize now that I've hoped to be great - as an actress, as a mother - because I want to embody the greatness of women who didn't get to be all they could have been. Their dignity, their courage, and their brilliance make me strive to be better. They're a part of me.

It doesnt matter what you have faith in, just that you have faith.
