But I do love horses. They are such an expression of joy.

I think that anybody that smiles automatically looks better.

Blessings come in disguise. And challenges can be a blessing.

I have just enough attention to feel glamorous and important.

I was the only kid in Manhattan I knew whose parents had a car.

I know I've made the right decision when I've followed my heart.

You can only be a virgin once. There can only be one first time.

I think I'd be in an entirely different business if it were easy.

Independent films have a very different cachet than success films.

For me, going away to work is the hardest part of my life and career.

Catholics have guilt and Jews have guilt, fine. But mothers can trump them all.

When I was growing up in New York City, my father was a taxi driver for a time.

You'll never have any mental muscle if you don't have any heavy stuff to pick up.

My parents treated my like I had a brain - which, in turn, caused me to have one.

I love my work, but there is no price you can put on what you miss when you are away from your kids.

Things hurt me just as much as anyone else. My insecurities, failures. I'm vulnerable to comparisons.

My roles are in some way like children to me. You don't ever really want to scrape one off your shoe.
