“I look back on my life like everybody does but not just career. I mean I look back on my life as a whole, so I don’t think that I dwell there or anything and in terms of work I hope that there is a lot in front of me.”

Yes, it was love at first sight. I feel that after all these years, I have finally found my soul mate.

Everything will be better in the morning. It always is.

I like the sensibility of Australian film a lot and the crews are fantastic. Great characters, wonderful people and no line between – I think in Hollywood they have this line between actors and crew a lot, and that just didn’t exist, which I really appreciated.

We measure success and depth by length of time, but it is possible to have a deep relationship that doesn’t always stay the same.

Sydney’s a beautiful city. It was a great experience.

I just think Australia tends to make very good movies, so if someone hands me an Australian or an American film script I would guess the Australian film would be more intriguing.

I know actors come around and they always talk like that, but I don’t do publicity if I don’t like the film.

I am not afraid of aging, but more afraid of people’s reactions to my aging.

It’s also very painful, because I feel, and I know, probably all women my age and older feel like we’re better and have more to give and are more fun now.

I’m afraid of being lazy and complacent. I’m afraid of taking myself too seriously.

Still, it’s tough trying to combine my acting career with my college career.

A lot of people in Hollywood, and everywhere pretty much, operate on fear. No one wants to get fired, so everyone’s scared to take a chance.

Some idea of inflation comes from seeing a youngster get his first job at a salary you dreamed of as the culmination of your career.

Now, I’ve gotten to the point in my career, I’m 13 years in, to where I know that I’m funny. I know that I’m good at this.

Maybe I’m naive, but I subscribe to the idea that nobody is actually making strategic decisions about their career. Trying to do that would be like playing three-card monte on Canal Street.

The NBA wasn’t a big deal at that time, so it wasn’t really in my career plans.

10′ was amazing! I had no career before ’10’ and then all of a sudden I was able to do pretty much whatever I was able to do in the business.

I have competed before empty stadiums a lot in my career.
