men trying mold
In my marriages, I'd lost parts of who I was because I was trying to mold myself into what I thought a man wanted me to be.
war age trying
In this age of remote-controlled pushbutton war, we must all try very, very hard to remain human beings.
perfect childhood trying
I spent a good deal of time going back over my childhood, my midlife, to try to understand who I was. We're supposed to be complete and whole, and you can't be whole if you're trying to be perfect. Doing a life review helped me get over the disease to please.
empathy trying scare
Look what scares you in the face and try to understand it. Empathy is revolutionary.
perfect trying needs
We don't need to be perfect. We're not supposed to be perfect; we're supposed to be complete. And you can't be complete if you're trying to be perfect.
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.
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.
