I don't think we spend enough time in silence, just realizing what's floating around in our noggin.

I had prepared myself for the second half of my life [to be] filled with other passions that don't include being in front of the camera. And then all of a sudden I got more work and more work and more work. And I went, "Well maybe things have shifted." And I think they have.

To me, the producing falls into the same as acting. It requires so much time out of your life, and I take it very personally, I realize. So if I do something, it just has to be something I love and I don't want anyone else to do. When I open projects, maybe something will appeal to me. I think I'm not opening them because I don't want anything to appeal to me right now.

If you don't have kids and animals, you don't truly know what life is about.

You grow up and share life experiences. That's one of the best parts of this business. You share how you're mellowing out and your new sense of self.

I think every human being has a level of melancholy in life and in general.

My parents were opera singers and voice teachers, so growing up, I admired musicians and dancers.
