“It’s so important to have that independence. You know it yourself: Everyone needs evenings of their own.”

I got a divorce, and I felt like I finally started my career. I started making movies and projects that I just really believed in.

I think my confidence has developed over the years in terms of the speed at which I will reveal how collaborative I want to be.

I was a handful growing up.

I’ve thought for a long time that my body type would have worked well in the ’70s. The idea that you could be a broad-shouldered, small-breasted woman and still wear really great outfits.

You’re going to change as you grow older, and that messes up a lot of relationships.

A good litmus test is that you should be comfortable with your significant other being present when you hang out with your friend.

I’m still a student of fashion, but I like hooking up with the people that really know how to make cool clothes.

I enjoy getting gussied up for an event or date night.

I have a great pack of female friends, but I also have a lot of guy friends. I believe that platonic relationship is entirely possible.

I grew up being told by my parents each time they went off to war that they may explode, so I needed to know how things like the gadgets in the kitchen worked.

I’ve always been a fan of science fiction.

I trust work, directors – I don’t live in fear. All good experiences have come from trusting the universe. There is no other way to live or love. Otherwise, you create your own prison.

I was a tomboy and I didn’t have a bunch of brothers but I always wanted them and so I sort of adopted a few of my great friends to be my brother.

If I could play drums like Patrick Carney or Taylor Hawkins, I’d be a really happy person.

I love yoga and hiking – I think that’s the perfect combo.

I went to a very progressive elementary school where I was heavily educated in civil rights. I remember learning about Harvey Milk when I was in sixth or seventh grade and being so inspired.

He was a staffer at Punch but in the evening he wrote columns for the Evening Standard and The Times.

The evening sings in a voice of amber, the dawn is surely coming.

Sitting in the morning sun, I’ll be sitting when the evening comes.

I’ve seen it all through the yellow windows of the evening train.

Sunday-evening tea before the fire! I have never missed one moment of beauty, not even taken it for granted.

The evening star Is the most beautiful of all stars.

Is everybody in?… Is everybody in?… Is everybody in? The ceremony is about to begin…

You’ve seen your birth, your life and death. You might recall all the rest. Did you have a good world when you died? Enough to base a movie on?
