happier interested maybe regular
If you're interested or like it, but could be just as happy living in a regular town, having a regular job, maybe doing little theatre, you're better off and you'll be a happier person. This is too gut-wrenching and heartbreaking.

Blanche talks about aging, and why should she be considered poor, because physical beauty is transitory and fading and she has such richness of the soul. I think that speech is so beautiful, and so telling and so true.

I loved getting to do Promised Land with him. I mean, he's really there for you. We did one very emotional scene in the church. He's just a wonderful acting partner. You feel very safe with him.

I put the weight on after we were together. I put on about 20 pounds when we got married, and people were flipping their lids. And then I put on more after that, and I've gone up and down since then.

If you want to say it with flowers, a single rose says: "I'm cheap!

One time we did have 300 acres in watermelons. That was fun.
All the nice things about Suzanne are me. All the things that aren't nice, that was just the writing.
I wanted it so badly that there was no choice. It's like something in your blood that you have to do.
