This is a business of love and labor.

Falling in love is a narcissistic endeavor. You play the role of lover, and you find someone to act it out on.

Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense.

In literature as in love, we are astonished at what is chosen by others.

She said 'I'm by commission. You don't have to pay anything until you sell anything.' I said, 'Well fine. You want to be my agent and not make anything.' I thought, 'Boy, is she dumb.'

For working with non-professional actors, you have to have this particular desire to work with people who are reluctant to play in a movie. I like this relationship. I'm like a recruiter, an employment agency giving someone employment.

So many roles for women demand that you make the audience fall in love with you or sympathise with you.

You meet someone, you care for them, and you fall in love; it's what it is.
