"The formula of happiness and success is just, being actually yourself, in the most vivid possible way you can."
"And it interferes with your ability to be a good actress if you're constantly aware of yourself as a person. To me, it isn't valuable to think about how I'm coming off all the time if I'm trying to create a character, because that's a process that I love. It's like falling in love and surrendering to another person or a character."

"Everything that truly makes us happy is quite simple - love, sex and food!"
"The great gift of human beings is that we have the power of empathy."
"What makes you different or weird, that's your strength."
"I think that you find your own way. You have your own rules. You have your own understanding of yourself, and that's what you're going to count on. In the end, it's what feels right to you. Not what your mother told you. Not what some actress told you. Not what anybody else told you but the still, small voice."
"The minute you start caring about what other people think, is the minute you stop being yourself."
