Nothing's going to come to you by sitting around and waiting for it.

Anytime that I've felt uninspired, I don't force myself to sit down and write. I only do it when I feel the impulse.

And I think the female creative urge is intrinsically biologically linked to our ability to give birth to a child, even if we've never... I've never given birth, but I feel like it's part of our psychology.

I do not do my own taxes. It's too many forms. "Here are my 70,000 forms. I have no idea."I would be in jail.

If I ever feel that acting is just soul-sucking and I don't want to do it anymore, I could stop.

I was really surprised when I started working and realized that you're actually on your own, a lot of the time. It makes you really responsible, as an actor.

And then the really awful thing is that at the end of the day after crying and experiencing things, then you look at what you've written and you're like, 'Hmm, there's half a page that's good here.' Then you throw out everything else.
