“You never see a normal spot, a bag under the eye or an unplucked eyebrow, because that’s not how Hollywood works.”

Feisty women are my calling!

We actually did perform it in front of all those thousands of people. And just beforehand, we had a little dress rehearsal, and there were all these famous wrestlers going around and watching as well. Terrifying.

I love watching faces as they grow up. It’s the difference between so many strong British actresses compared to what America does to women.

I always hate it when I see the wrong person in massive roles, so for me, my biggest fear would be accepting a role I thought I wouldn’t find the rhythm of.

In order for us to appreciate this world, we have to be a bit more honest, and I hope I do that.

I love all of Kate Winslet’s characters. And Natalie Portman. If I can have a smidgen of what they’ve done, that would be awesome.

Why aren’t there these epic roles for women, for whatever age you are?

Sometimes in the real world, there is fire between people.

I have been enormously lucky. My first role was in a great film by a woman director.

Everybody’s story of getting into the industry is just as difficult as the next person. Whether you come from money or no money, it’s not easy… you have to offer yourself; you can’t expect someone to get you.

I’ve tried not to get too bogged down by what people want you to be.

With ‘Lady Macbeth,’ I had two other things offered to me, and they would have also been very fun, but you just have to figure that out. And then you do it.

Lady Macbeth’ is a great opportunity for me to prove that maybe the outcome of ‘The Falling’ was not necessarily a fluke.

I do like a bit of danger. Guns, cars, running, bullets. I’m up for it.

Do we need to have a female Bond? Couldn’t we just make something new?

When I look for roles, I am looking for incredibly powerful women.

It is my fondest wish that in the fullness of time, the American people will look back on the Franken presidency as something of a mixed bag and not as a complete disaster.

I bet they didn’t tell you that was in the gift bag.

I fight, knock them out, have some sex and Monday I’m back to hitting bags and kicking ass.

A structured bag, statement jewelry or a cute scarf can add polish to any outfit!

Speaking of sleeping bags, has anything ever had a less creative name?

A beautiful literary collection that tells of today’s country doctor, somewhat removed from our romantic black-bag image of days gone by, but still fulfilling an essential need in caring for spread-out populations.

We are not all connected. We are bags of skin. We are all separate bags of thinking skin.

History was a trash bag of random coincidences torn open in a wind.
