And I have a really great agent and I know it's almost an oxymoron to say you have a smart agent. But she is and she has a beautiful aesthetic and she has guided me.

I'm a right pain in the hole for my agent. I won't take certain parts if I think they're offensive or banal. For instance, I won't do a film if I think it's full of violence for violence's sake, or a television drama if I don't think it's intelligent writing.

It's one thing to be talented, but the other thing is connections - with agents, with people; that's what makes a difference, and from the beginning, I've had wonderful representation.

I keep lot of my opinions to myself.

The only strong opinion that I have about myself is that I don't have any opinions.

I have no idea how people think of literary agents. Truthfully, I don't think they think of them very often.

I'm very opinionated, very intelligent and not afraid to show that.
