mirrors age faces
I looked into the mirror and saw this middle-aged woman who keeps invading my face.
grief joy answers
I do not want to arrive at the end of life and then be asked what I made of it and have to answer: 'I acted.' I want to be able to say: 'I loved and I was mystified. It was a joy sometimes, and I knew grief. And I would like to do it all again.'
home self roots
Nothing ever comes to an end. Wherever one has sunk roots that emanate from one's best or truest self, one will always find a home.
art actors want
It is only the untalented director who imagines him or herself in every part, wants his or her own thoughts and emotions portrayed; it is only the untalented who make their own limitations those of the actors as well.
success long best-things
The best thing that can come with success is the knowledge that it is nothing to long for.
lonely thinking people
I just think that sometimes it is less hard to wake up feeling lonely when you are alone than to wake up feeling lonely when you are with someone else. Some people would be better off alone, but they feel they've got to get hold of someone to prove they're worthwhile.
reality life-is magnificent
reality can be magnificent even when life is not.
real loneliness
The fear inside of loneliness: That only what others have is real.
acting actors life-experience
Life experiences become acting experiences, which in turn become life experiences.
sex differences accepting
If only we could accept that there is no difference between us where human values are concerned. Whatever sex.
tired littles privilege
Sometimes I get a little tired of it. But you know, what a privilege, to get tired of working with Ingmar Bergman.
acting evening actors
Oh, those wonder-filled evenings when acting enables me for a short moment to have more life.
missing choices goes-on
I am learning that if I just go on accepting the framework for life that others have given me, if I fail to make my own choices, the reason for my life will be missing. I will be unable to recognize that which I have the power to change.
lonely knowing waking
It's better to wake up alone knowing that you're alone, than waking up with someone and still be lonely
