I am the least intimidating person. I think I would have done better in my career if I were a little more intimidating. Even the maid who comes to work for me once a week has found out that she can just trample over me... I'm a Cancer! We are not ferocious people.

If you can write it, I can be it.
If you didn't know that I am an actress, I don't think you could tell from my lifestyle. I cook and cook and cook. I like to be with my daughter. She's 16, so of course I bore her.
I like to watch people. For example, people at the airport... What is interesting about them is that they don't know what they are like. People at airports are the most brilliant actors in the world, because their attention is elsewhere, and they are idiosyncratic. I like to imitate people. I walk behind them and imitate their backs.
I have kept working, even if I've thrown off the big movies I used to do. I still have three or four wonderful little movies coming out.
If I turn on the television, am I to believe that that is America? I'm sorry, I don't believe that's America.
I spoke to a woman who had seen her son run over by a car. She went to one of these damn therapists who do nothing but dole out drugs and haven't the faintest idea how to help somebody. And she goes home, puts them in her cabinet, and works through it herself.
I love coloring books. I keep some by my bed.
