I realized that being an actor was something I never owned up to, in a weird way. I would be a hostess or a waitress or a house restorer before I would consider myself an actor, because I never thought I was good enough.

My job is not to talk smack about anything. This is why I dislike strongly doing magazine articles: My personality does not translate to print. People don't read it as sarcasm, and it just comes off badly.

It's the rare happening when actors get together and you have chemistry, connection, just something that works, that's bigger than what's on the page.

I'm difficult on every single level. I'm aware that I can be annoying.

My mother always told me, 'Don't get married. Make your own life. You don't need a man.'

Why is it that when we get older, we get more fearful?

I did love that scene in the movie [ "Our Brand Is Crisis"] because it's like "The Wizard of Oz." You see the backstage action of politics. You have access to see behind the curtain. You see how it's all one big advertisement.
