“I think the sexiest thing on anybody is intelligence. I respect somebody who has a brain and wants to use it more than a pretty face and status.”

“I make movies for grownups. When I was a kid, I saw movies for grownups.”

“I'm a mother, and I'm a wife, and I'm an actress, and I've always been all three in that order.”

“I'm not a glamour girl, and I don't want to be. I'm a character actress.”

“The camera can be a very cruel instrument.”

“I know what I can do, and I know what I can't do. I'm not a comedienne.”

“I'm not interested in being a star. I'm interested in being a good actress.”

“I don't like to talk about my private life. I'm a very private person.”

“You have to be very careful what you say. I've learned that. You don't want to be quoted out of context.”

“I've been very lucky. I've worked with some of the best directors in the business.”

“I'm not a method actress. I'm a professional actress.”

“You learn to live with the criticism. You have to. Or you'll go crazy.”
