Without wonder and insight, acting is just a trade. With it, it becomes creation.

To look back is to relax one's vigil.

I sent my flowers across the hall to Mrs Nixon but her husband remembered what a Democrat I am and sent them back.

Gay Liberation? I ain't against it, it's just that there's nothing in it for me.

I was the daughter of an immigrant, raised to feel that I needed to get excellent, flawless grades and a full scholarship and a graduate degree and a good job - all the stepping stones to conventional success.

I enjoy difficult tasks. What's hard is finding the people to do them and finding a team to actually enjoy success. That is the real challenge of success.

There is no formula for success. All you need to do is put in your best and be blessed with some good luck as well.
