I love New Orleans I love the way it looks. I love the way it feels.

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

She says that beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most.

I was never the kind of girl who said, "One day, I am going to be a beautiful bride, and I am going to have a family." I wanted to work and support myself and make my parents proud. All I did was work. I did three or four films a year, and felt like I was on a treadmill. Finally I said, "Nothing is exciting to me anymore." So I took six months off, which turned into a year, and said, "God, I don't miss it." That's when all kinds of interesting things crossed my path.

Actually, they [ Hilary Clinton or Donald Trump] are doing pretty well on their own. They don't need my character to step in.

I have no desire to maintain a lifestyle. I am a horrible celebrity. If I am out in public I dress like a pig.

I'm always in this shape, that shape, whatever shape you like the most. I am always in various stages of shapes. If the woman needs to be more soft I'll gain weight and then I'll lose weight for another film that I did where I wanted her to be more wiry. I enjoy using my body as something that helps me get to a character.
