I may not lead the most dramatic life, but in my brain it's 'War and Peace' everyday.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My passion stems from seeking world peace and finding how we can live together creatively rather than violently.
The only thing in life that really gives me any peace is just being lost in the process of creating something, whether it's the film or painting and drawing, which has been a big part of my life, for a long time.
In the course of my lifetime, that world went from violence to a kind of peace.
Everyone is interested in war, in that people don't want it to happen. I'm much more interested in peace than in war but it's important to understand why we fight.
As an actress, I get plenty of drama in my professional life. When I'm at home, I want a peaceful life.
But my happiness in this world - my level of peace - is never going to be dictated by acting.
Life - the way it really is - is a battle not between Bad and Good but between Bad and Worse.
I was born in 1962, and it seems that throughout my entire life the world has demanded peace but maintained conflict.
I don't think I'm yet peaceful because I have to struggle every day within myself when I see the suffering of the people of the world, the women and the children. And fury sets in. But I have to transform that and take it out and do something positive with it - but I have to do that sometimes minute to minute.
My life has been devoted to peacemaking.
