To cast aside from Poetry, all that is not Inspiration
My grandmother gave birth to 13 children and I come from a long line of women who gave birth in their 40s.
I was the all-American face. You name it, honey - American Dairy Milk, Metropolitan Life insurance, McDonald's, Burger King. The Face That Didn't Matter - that's what I called my face.
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 just live in the truth and think that every moment counts.
Playing big films on festivals is SO misguided. And I know where it comes from: it comes from the head of the festival thinking that he'll play with the big guys, like that's the way to do it and it's SO not the way to do it. It's where Cannes went wrong, it's where Toronto is going wrong. I mean, I got off the plane in Cannes this year and the streets were paved with posters from studio movies. Who cares about that? Why come to Cannes for that? You're going to be able to see all those films anyway - you're not going to be able to avoid them, so I don't get it. Obviously.
I just want to sleep, and eat, and learn about what's going on in the world.
Books have always been living things to me. Some of my encounters with new authors have changed my life a little. When I have been perplexed, looking for something I could not define to myself, a certain book has turned up, approached me as a friend would. And between it's cover carried the questions and the answers I was looking for.
If we only have the will to walk, then God is pleased with our stumbles.
When the Soul wants to experience something she throws out an image in front of her and then steps into it.
To look away from the world, or to stare at it, does not help a man to reach God; but he who sees the world in Him stands in His presence.
