  • I prefer younger men. In some ways, they are much more open to a woman,being stronger and independent then some of the men my age.
  • To me, 15 minutes worth of absolute genius in a film is so much better,than two hours of mediocrity. I would rather pay to see something,different like that.

  • On our gray sand shores, those shaved logs became home to insects, birds,and small rodents and made great hiding places or impromptu tents. A,favorite childhood game was to see who could traverse the most beached,logs without ever touching the sand.
  • Talented people are written off once they hit their 50s and 60s, and the,saddest thing is, we just get better as we get older.
  • I never stopped doing theatre because that was a place where I could,really learn and stretch and grow. I was doing Chekhov and Molire and,Shakespeare and Mamet and Miller - great characters with great words.
  • And you are not always fortunate enough to have that with a film role,especially as a woman.
  • Have you seen some of the women - and the men - in Los Angeles? They pay surgeons to make them look completely different in the hope of finding their youth.
  • A pilot is like the most extensive dress rehearsal you can ever imagine, because the writers are learning about the actors, the actors are learning about the characters.
