8. As an actress, I'm drawn to emotion and expressing the human condition in all its forms, and I'm fortunate to have thoughts and feelings at my fingertips.
9. My thinking about plastic surgery is this. I haven't had it, but never say never. Because when you do, you are definitely going to go there.
11. I never understood the idea that you're supposed to mellow as you get older. Slowing down isn't something I relate to at all. The goal is to continue in good and bad, all of it.

13. As a parent I provide all I can, but I think in the best possible scenario you need to have a man.
14. Relationships are hard. You're lucky if you find someone.
15. The best part is that I'm still here and, because the end is in sight, I treasure it all more.
16. I said I would never go to a psychiatrist, and I spent much of my life in psychoanalysis.

39. When I was younger I had these enormous vanities about what I expected from myself. I'm glad to have a comfortable and fascinating life, but now I see it for what it is, so I can be braver and more spontaneous and say to myself: "Oh, screw it, just go out there and do it."
