When my mother tells me to do something, I'll do my own thing. A strong character can be good, but sometimes it is not good. I hope it's good in my case.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My mother and I will continue on some level that I haven't determined yet. I think my mother's a great character, and I have to say that giving my mother to the world has to be the biggest thrill of my writing career.
If I'm going to do something, I'm going to do it well. That's just my character, that's just the way it is with me.
One of the great things about my mother is she really valued people's character more than what they did.
I'm just going to be as honest as I can with my children and really try to build their character to be as strong as ours is.
I always say that I'm at my best when there's no example of what the character is supposed to be. I thrive when there's not much and I have to create it.
The way I live my life or conduct myself when I have a problem is very different from many of the characters I play.
My mother started out by being a very good girl. She did everything that was expected of her, and it cost her dearly. Late in her life, she was furious that she had not followed her own heart; she thought that it had ruined her life, and I think she was right.
My mom has a good way of engaging me in a conversation about the choices I make, listening, being objective and open-minded, and respecting those choices so long as they don't put me in danger.
Character is one of most precious parts of you. You can't get involved in things that will damage your character.
The thing I respond to the most is just great writing, interesting characters. I like to think that there is something fun about playing a character that has a lot of authority in her own life.
