As far as developing a career as an actress, I think it's a fine balance between trying to just work, and also be true to yourself.

You're always having to live more to fuel something new. It's an obligation to yourself and to the audience. The personal baggage that comes with being a known actor just adds to that struggle.

I really want to try to become a great actress when I get older and continue to do what I'm doing now.

I don't see myself being an actress forever.

I don't consider myself a great actress. I'm just trying to stay alive, actually. I think I'm good, and I've learned a lot, certainly, mostly in the theater. I've been sloughed off movies for years. But what can you do? That's life.

I don't think I can be a bright and fresh-looking actress. I am not really confident in that kind of character.

Growing up, I always wanted to always be something new. I thought if I was an actress, I would have a chance at doing it all. What's incredible about this profession is every role you play; you learn a different skill set. That really appealed to me.

I don't know what the secret to longevity as an actress is. It's more than talent and beauty. Maybe it's the audience seeing itself in you.

There's always a sense of newness with acting, because every role, you come to every role fresh.
