thinking actors exciting
I think it's exciting to see actors do new things.
believe oneness way
I really believe in a oneness. So if I'm looking at somebody else, it's not in a narcissistic way, but you're kind of seeing yourself.
What I do affects others; what others do affects me.
kids thinking appreciate
As far as kids go, at an early age they have to develop a sense of individuality. It's just something that everyone goes through. But I think the older I get, the more I appreciate the fact that we really are just so connected.
people world littles
It's strange, because it seems that society is kind of promoting or nurturing this kind of ostracized existence. People are kind of very much in their own little worlds.
believe thinking ideas
I think as with everything in life you've got to follow your gut. If you believe it wholeheartedly, then it's not going to feel like you're kind of pasting on an idea.
fans violence
I've never really been a fan of violence.
moving character play
I personally kind of yearn to play characters who are complex and who strike a truthful chord in me and who are challenged in some way and, I guess, who kind of move through those challenges.
married being-married felt
I like being married, but it was never something I felt I had to do.
acting age passionate
I kind of realized I could sing, so I played around with that for a while. And that led me to acting in itself, which I came more passionate about by the age of 15.
quiet sometimes prioritize
Sometimes it was so quiet, its frightening. It really prioritizes things.
thinking way japanese-culture
I think that the Japanese culture is one of the very few cultures left that is its own entity. They're just so traditional and so specific in their ways. It's kind of untouched, it's not Americanized.
glad isolated
I'm glad that it was so physical and so isolated
song queens dancing
My life is as good as an Abba song. It’s as good as Dancing Queen.
