I was the all-American face.

Most bad behavior comes from insecurity.

The older you get, the more you've done.

I do not need a lot of money to be happy.

Most bad behaviour comes from insecurity.

I became an actor because I couldn't not.

Bad acting is the ultimate inconsideration.

I tend to wear outfits that match the walls.

A good marriage is different to a happy marriage.

There's a small club of women who are willing to age.

It's such an amazing thing to be loved for who you are.

When you connect with a cause, it's like falling in love.

It's easier to change directions while you're still moving.

I just live in the truth and think that every moment counts.

Show me the story. I just want to tell a story that pulls me forward.

I need my family to remind me in a loving and nice way to lighten up.

I don't think it is worth trying to look 10 years younger through surgery.

Ultimately, however, the script an actor enlivens is someone else's words.

People who make lots of money at what they do should just shut up about it.

I just want to sleep, and eat, and learn about what's going on in the world.

I have a thing with the camera. The lens is unconditional. It doesn't judge you.

The sexiest thing in the world is to be totally naked with your wedding band on.

I am lucky enough to be married to a guy who tells me I look beautiful every day.

I will walk out on a scene if it's all lit and ready to go but it's not happening.

It's fun to be loose. Just like on stage, all of your great ideas come from looseness.

Denying the lines on our faces makes a comment about age and wisdom I don't care to make.

In the early part of my life I carried the flame for fiery women: perky women who were not dumb.

I push for what I think can be the best, and if I feel they're not going for the best, it kills me.

But I never worried about having a child in my 40s, which is unusual - normally, I'm the queen of worry.

My grandmother gave birth to 13 children and I come from a long line of women who gave birth in their 40s.

I hope to find the roles that are age appropriate but not yearning to be younger, or parenting ad nauseam.

If I could have one prayer answered, I would pray for patience. I move so fast sometimes. I try to slow down.

I started out in stand-up, so it's very satisfying to make people laugh, but it usually means at your own expense.

I think when it comes to Botox and surgery, actresses should do it or not do it, but be honest about their choices.

If you want to get a facelift, get a facelift. Don't sit there and talk about why you got it because of the pressure.

I am one of the happiest people I know. And that's a weird place to have arrived at from being a depressed Jewish kid.

An actress in a film starts every day with an hour and a half in front of a mirror, with hair and make-up and costumes.

I don't believe in careers. I believe in work. I'm not interested in some 'big picture that would be really good for me'.

Actors always want you to believe something else even though that's the truth and to do that well it's almost a dying art.

I want to start a trend of women as we really look. Some good things, some not so good. I am tired of looking at frozen faces.

People pay to see movies with women looking beautiful, but I think there will be a place for me to play women looking my own age.

I have enjoyed a wonderful run in films, so far, and I may, at some point, come back. But it will be in my own time and in my own style.

Granted there are only seven stories in the universe. And I agree with that. But give me a great variation of those stories. And literate.

I make decisions for my life, not the other way around. Besides, when you have a kid, you must weigh everything against time with your child.

I never thought I would start working again, and I did, but it was really hard, and I don't know that I would advise anyone to step back the way I did.

I don't think that I'm that easy to live with. I have to be reminded that I can have fun. I need my family to remind me in a loving and nice way to lighten up.

It's no secret that I didn't love 'An Officer And A Gentleman' then, and I certainly don't love it now, so at least no one could accuse me of being inconsistent.

I started out in stand-up when I was 18, which is really masochistic, and I did it really till I started going in movies. I did it for about three years out in LA.

It's inconceivable to some people that that wouldn't be the sexiest thing to do in the whole world: to be a movie star, and make money, and be pampered, and whatever.

I do admit to being challenging, but it's always for the work, it's never personal. I will walk out on a scene if it's all lit and ready to go but it's not happening.
