The men I worked for didn't look at me as having any gender at all. They regarded me more as a workhorse.

There's no training for the business, no credentials necessary to enter... It's all about entrepreneurs, innate street intelligence, and instincts. It's a business which encourages people with dreams. That's the essence of Hollywood.

That's my proudest accomplishment: that I don't feel like a grown-up.

Having money is better than not having it, but I've been poor, and I've survived.

For me, I'm not a jealous person. That's just not my thing. You have to have trust in your relationship.

Sweet lordie, there is nothing more fun than getting people in a room to talk about their relationships - in a setting that everyone knows is light and fun but also real.

I couldn't identify with anyone. At school, I was considered very strange. I didn't understand the relationships between people.

Using the device of an imaginary world allows me in some strange way to go to the central issues - it's one of many ways to express feelings about real people, about real human relationships.
