I live in New York, and when you're older and widowed, it's a perfect place because you just don't feel lonely there, and, luckily, I like my own company, too.
-
My theory in anything you do is to keep exploring, keep digging deeper to find new stuff.
-
Mostly, I spend my time being a mother to my two children, working in my organic garden, raising masses of sweet peas, being passionately involved in conservation, recycling and solar energy.
-
I don't give my advice unless it's asked for.
-
I loved the first Christmas I had in England.
-
My husband was very special and very funny and outspoken, and he would have a black and blue every so often because under the table, I'd say, 'Don't say that!'
-
I really do like being independent, and I don't want to have to rely on anyone else to cart me around if I break a bone.
-
My family was very musical. My brother is an opera singer; my parents both sang.
-
When I was beginning, a young actor could go from repertory company to repertory company. I did that and loved it. I was also lucky.
-
I am always happiest in an ensemble.
-
Maybe subconsciously I've kept activism separate from acting because it's important to me in a more profound way.
-
I've always just adored music. It's my first love, really. I admire and respect people in the music business. You really have to work hard and diligently. Sometimes actors can be lazy and get away with it, but you can't do that if you're a musician.
-
Acting is really only part of my life. I'm addicted to it.

Just look at my face. Its an extraordinary experience. All of my friends who are grandparents have been saying, just wait, a bit cynically, but its just extraordinary. You feel like a child again yourself. Just walking on air.
