Throughout My Career I've Played A Lot Of Parts That Might've Been Played By A Man. They're Human Roles Rather Than Specifically Men Or Women. I've Never Been As Hooked Into That As A Lot Of Women Are, You Know, Like, 'there Aren't Enough Roles For Women.' There Aren't Necessarily A Lot Of Good Roles For Anybody.

I've Also Learned To No Longer Feel Guilty If I'm Invited Out And Don't Want To Go.

I’m Not Sad About Any Of My Life. It’s So Unconventional. It Doesn’t Look Anything Like I Thought It Would.
