powerful talking soul
I found that you're more powerful when talking from your soul.
be-good
When you're told to be good, you have to get rid of whatever is bad. I sure identify with that.
ifs i-can
If I can change, anybody can change.
judgmental hard
I've worked really, really hard on myself to not be judgmental.
writing scary up-to-you
Movies are collective, cooperative endeavours, which I like a lot. But writing is all up to you, it's what's so scary; it's just you and that page. But I really like it a lot.
running hate office
I hate to create cynicism about politicians. We just need to invade. Regular people need to run for office and keep their balls and ovaries intact.
real character thinking
Think of anger as a muscle. The way you express anger isn't the way that I do, or you. If you have a good director, you will find that he's getting you to use an entirely different muscle that you never even knew you had - it's real hard and sore, then after a while it becomes normal. And you discover all these new muscles when you enter a new character - that's what a director does for you.
television welcome hard
When I was in my 40s was I simply produced my own movies because no one offered me anything. But certainly after 50 it's hard for a woman, which is why television is such a welcoming thing.
heart matter spite
When you know in your heart why you did something, and you feel and you know that in spite of all the controversy that it was right, doesn't matter.
girl pretty-girl enough
I wasn't pretty enough to be the pretty girl and I wasn't unattractive enough to be the dorky girl.
sleep together roles
That's what we're all doing: paving the way, finding the roles that have the complication instead of the one that's always got it together or the dedicated housewife or the wild one who smokes cigarettes and sleeps with anybody.
strong interesting people
So much is made of good, strong roles for women. Actually, it's really interesting playing vulnerable people as well.
loss weight-loss shortcuts
There are no shortcuts and no sweatless quickies.
exercise work-out matter
An exercise outfit helps because it sets this time apart from the rest of your day and makes it matter more.
