I felt that the biological clock was some myth to keep me from doing what I wanted to do. And so I rebelled against it in the '90s. I thought it was a backlasher, some sort of faulty data. But it's real. I'm glad I woke up before my body was just like 'uh-uh.'

As a woman, a lot of stories haven’t been told and we’ve got a lot of catching up to do.

I tried to do the commercial thing. But I don’t want to keep shoving Twinkies down everyone’s throat. People are hungry for something of more substance.

When it’s working, what acting is really about is getting into the essence of a moment in a creative, joyous way – through whatever frees you up.

I haven’t gotten stuck with something because I just keep going, and I keep doing different things.

I do believe there’s good in all of us, even if it’s layered over so thickly.

Two things I’m trying to work on are openness and flexibility.

To do work that’s not going to be fulfilling doesn’t make sense.

You can rest a lot in an hour or have a whole day and not do it properly. One way I get a quality recharge is to connect with nature. To experience something that’s bigger than me.

If someone puts up $100 million on a movie, they’re gonna be concerned about whether they’ll get it back. So they’re not gonna make a movie about three girls, you know?
