I'm one of those people who knows how lucky she is. And every day, I look around the house, and I count my blessings. They're all there under that roof.
-
I was always incredibly driven and found it impossible to relax. I felt that if I slacked off for a minute to enjoy myself, then so many things would be missed.

Not everything has to be immediate.

I had prepared myself for the second half of my life to be filled with other passions that don't include being in front of the camera. And then all of a sudden I got more work and more work and more work. And I went, "Well maybe things have shifted." And I think they have.
-
I've lived next door to people all my life. I don't know how cute they think I am.
-
I think most of us are raised with preconceived notions of the choices we're supposed to make.
-
My quest to find a great role for myself started long before this film "Our Brand Is Crisis"came around.
-
I can't cry on demand. I need to feel what I'm feeling. I can't just say, 'Give me a moment' and then cry.
-
I've always wanted to do a female buddy film, the kind the guys get to do.
-
As connected as we are with technology, it's also removed us from having to have human connection, made it more convenient to not be intimate.

I feel like when you have an unauthorized police badge and something that looks like it could be a concealed weapon in the small of your back that when you, someone crosses you, pisses you off, road rage, I think just the slight badge and the little moving away of the jacket and not losing eye contact does amazing things.

She says that beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most.
-
Competing with other women wastes a lot of time, and I'm just not very good at it.

If you're gonna tell a story from beginning to end, I always think you have to have a great structure in a script. If it gets you excited and it's something you've never read before that's another plus. I think also with improv and that whole world of stand-up, that's a whole other organism of comedy that still needs a story, but it's more free-form. On the set, it is the combination of both those worlds coming together: a great script and an allowance to play with it.

Comedy is wonderful when you really nail it and you hear people laughing, but it's not always that easy.
-
After a while, you have no idea how old you are because you've lied so many times.
-
Being in front of a camera, in a nice dress, getting all dressed up is extreme. There's a lot of other extreme situations, you know, just getting out of bed sometimes is extreme - but I do it. Just got to do it, just got to get up. Put your sweatpants on, brush off the dog hair and just get out of the house!

If you can't pronounce it, you probably shouldn't be putting it in your body or in your environment.
-
I can't selfishly take journeys anymore because I have to take a little boy along with me.
-
I'm like the queen of planning and scheduling and I'm trying very hard to stop it. I just want to finish what I'm doing and go home. I want to have a weekend. I want to have breakfast, a stack of pancakes.
-
Sure, I've done movies in which I was embarrassed by my performance, or might not have cared for a co-star. Then I'd have to tell lies, like, 'Oh, we love each other; everything was perfect!'
-
I'm always in this shape, that shape, whatever shape you like the most. I am always in various stages of shapes. If the woman needs to be more soft I'll gain weight and then I'll lose weight for another film that I did where I wanted her to be more wiry. I enjoy using my body as something that helps me get to a character.

I've learned that success comes in a very prickly package. Whether you choose to accept it or not is up to you. It's what you choose to do with it, the people you choose to surround yourself with. Always choose people that are better than you. Always choose people that challenge you and are smarter than you. Always be the student. Once you find yourself to be the teacher, you've lost it.

Women are like ovens. We need 5 to 15 minutes to heat up.
