People often refer to my career before The Crying Game as something which led up to that point. But I was very fulfilled in what I was doing.

I've never thought about the end of my career. I've had this growing motto in my life to live day to day - and when you live day to day, it's hard to talk years.

I won't apologize for choosing my career over kids.

In my 20s, I used to cry about why I wasn't thinner or prettier, but I want to add that I also used to cry about things like, 'I wish my hair would grow faster. I wish I had different shoes...' I was an idiot... It's a decade of tears.

I gave up my childhood for a career.

I'm convinced that I've been hired for jobs because I can cry on cue.

When I was younger, I thought I had to shut myself off, work really hard to cry. I learned after a while that that's just not... You know, often in life, you cry when you're caught off-guard. That's where I need to be when I'm acting, too.

I have two children. I gave up a lot for my career, but I'm very happy for it. I've done what I've always thought was best for me and my family.

The way I work emotionally is: I don't ever try to cry. I try not to, which is what for me produces organic emotion.

When my career slowed, I knew deep down it wasn't over.
