“I have to be a calmer person, because my anger can look pretty terrifying to a young person.”

I work out. I used to go to yoga every day. Now I just incorporate yoga into my warm-up and my cool down.

So I get the mail, open it up, deal with it then.

To doing it all on my own and questioning what I’m doing.

I just try to get through my to-do list, with my kids’ homework being at the top of it, and then try to prepare for the next audition or whatever scene I’m shooting next. Balance.

I try to make the producers cry and the crew laugh.

I like doing new things..

Every dollar that I spend, every dollar that I make.

I read. It affects every decision that I make.

I think I continue to work because I’m good at my craft.

I’m dedicated to bringing to life what the author is trying to portray.

I still look up the meaning of the name of the character to see if there are any clues in that.

So I always like to dissect the scene and try to get some hint about what the author was trying to get at.

Trying to beat my personal best

Yelling and screaming won’t really get what I want from my kids.

I’m newly widowed, so I’ve gone from having a life partner, and having another brain to make decisions with

I guess I’m a pretty curious person.

To admit that there is any such thing as chance, in the common acceptation of the term, would be to attempt to establish a power independent of God.

Feelings are good servants, but they are disastrous masters.

Whatever one loves most is beautiful.

It will allow the moderate opposition to be able to neutralize the helicopters and aircraft that are dropping chemicals and have been carpet-bombing them

Confronting an irresponsible person is not painful to him; only consequences are.

A supreme motivation to create or do something special. To win for love.

There’s no better way to become a disintegrated character than to be your own authority.

I know and share the many sorrows a human being can experience, but I do not cling to them; they pass through me, like life itself, as a broad eternal stream…and life continues.
