“I feel a little guilty only being an actor.”

Acting is really only part of my life. I’m addicted to it.

I have always felt my role as a designer is to do the very best I can for a woman to make her look her best. Fashion is only fashion once a woman puts it on.

You really have to work hard and diligently. Sometimes actors can be lazy and get away with it, but you can’t do that if you’re a musician.

I think I have a lot of crazy layers.

Whether you’re on TV or on the stage, you have to work hard to stay fresh, real, and full of energy. You can’t settle back. You always have to stay on your toes.

I’m mostly a jazz fan and I’ve never really been into rock ‘n’ roll music.

You learn more discipline in the theatre than you do in movies or TV. You’re on stage every night and you have to sustain your energy level tor several hours.

I feel that its our children who do give us hope because they are the ones who are going to save the world.

I try to avoid a specific image. I seek to play as many different women as I can to avoid having a label put on me.

Just look at my face. Its an extraordinary experience. All of my friends who are grandparents have been saying, just wait, a bit cynically, but its just extraordinary. You feel like a child again yourself. Just walking on air.

I was raised in a time where children were still seen and not heard basically, so I think a lot of us in my generation went the other way and just tried to be as much more liberal and open and we’re still paying for it.

Film has always been hard for me, I’m basically a stage actress. I never felt comfortable in front of the camera.

When they asked Jack Benny to do something for the Actor’s Orphanage – he shot both his parents and moved in.

Broadway has changed tremendously from the early days when the shows were referred to as musical comedies.

I’m an actor. I’ve always been an actor. I’ve always approached all my comedy as an actor. I don’t really care about jokes either. I tire of jokes.

Colloquialism is the toughest part of what we do, as foreign actors, because there are certain sayings that you guys have that absolutely don’t make any sense.

It is interesting to be here and to see that for certain actors they have to live in a way that you think of nobody living anymore except for in small towns. They have such elaborate double lives.

If you ask any actor “What single thing would make you really, really happy?” Among the top five things they’d say is not having to audition anymore.

I went to school to be an actor in Canada and realized I hated auditions once I left, which is a huge problem if you want to get a part.

Actors are just entertainers, even the serious ones. That’s all an actor is. He’s like a serious Bruce Forsyth.
