I was sent to ballet school when I was very young. I really loved dancing. I started performing in high school by the end of my sophomore year.
It was considered that you were stepping down by doing television. I almost turned Cybill down because I so wanted to remain a theater actress.
The older I get the more I try not to waste my time on negative energy.
You are always damned by things that you do well as an actor.
I often close my eyes because I can't tolerate violence.
I adore clothes, I adore drinking. I just don't have the time or the inclination to totally indulge in it.
You can only do the work to the very best of your ability.
Why would I lose sleep when I really need valuable sleep just to recuperate and come back and do my job?
I'm a nice, happily married wife and mom and I live in Connecticut.
Why put it on if you're not going to strut?
Really, can anyone drink several martinis at lunch?
It's a great time to be an actress at this point in my life.
Lawrence of Arabia is the ultimate movie, deeply cinematic.
I do enjoy film. The more I do it the more I learn.
