I love playing Chekhov. That's the hardest; that's why I love it most.

I love going to the movies; I love watching good movie actors. They must know something I don't.

If you want a bourgeois existence, you shouldn't be an actor. You're in the wrong profession.

Working with Brando was fun. It was like a tennis match. We played unbelievably well together.

The Amateur Marriage grew out of the reflection that of all the opportunities to show differences in character, surely an unhappy marriage must be the richest.

I read a very romantic book when I was young, when I was in college: Rilke's 'Letters to a Young Poet.' And I've always felt that if you are in any kind of an artistic, creative endeavor, and you feel there's something else you can do for a living and be happy, I think you should do something else.

I have noticed... that men usually leave married women alone and are inclined to treat all wives with respect. This is no great credit to married women.

Gay marriage is absolutely something that I am in full support of and a big advocate of, and I think it's an important issue, but there's a reason that I don't talk about politics and why I'll never be in politics. I am not the person to ever do that.
