age
Professionally, I have no age.
powerful roles theater
The roles that are written for women as they grow older in theater are much richer and much more powerful.
father honor benefits
I'm very old-fashioned in some ways because of my father, who thought that being a public servant was an honor. Everyone must find a capacity in which they can serve, because we all benefit from society.
writing needs actresses
What we need is more women writers, writing for older women. There are some actresses who have production companies and create their own material, and I truly admire that
brother knowing feelings
I have a brother who's a psychologist. He says three-quarters of the world are born feeling that they will be affected by the world; one quarter are born knowing that they will affect the world
play desire roles
I have no desire to play most of the roles being offered
suffering fool
The older I get, the less I suffer fools gladly
confidence actors gaps
The big gap between the ability of actors is confidence.
society benefits capacity
Everyone must find a capacity in which they can serve, because we all benefit from society.
relaxation lovely letting-you-go
You know, when you've worked with somebody before and you've worked very deeply and dangerously then you start with the relaxation and the trust right away and that lets you go even deeper, which is a lovely thing.
moving actresses young
I do not admire young actresses whose foreheads cannot move
teenager icons ideas
I find the idea of today's icons being teenagers incredibly uninspiring
enough wanted needed
It never occurred to me that I couldn't change things that needed changing or couldn't have what I wanted if I worked hard enough and was good enough
moving people stones
I had a great deal of pressure to move to LA after Romancing the Stone came out and I'd become very popular. But people came to me anyway.
