I think one probably absorbs things like a sponge and things emerge without your always being aware of it.

I tend to absorb a lot of what other people are feeling.

I've been so blessed to have my career gradually get bigger and bigger, so I've been able to absorb stuff and take stuff gradually.

In the second part of life you get rid of stuff you've accumulated.

As you get older, your body doesn't hold up as much.

I used to swallow people's energies, and then I learned, as I got older, that I'm too sensitive, and I had to stop doing that. Now I don't take as much in.

It's amazing how much you can absorb on a film set.

The body doesn't recover like it does when you're younger.

When everything in a person's life is gone, ripped-out gone, it's not that you stay empty for so long, so you replace it with something else very quickly.

In my case, self-absorption is completely justified. I have never discovered any other subject quite so worthy of my attention.
