Acting Is A Matter Of Giving Away

The More Powerful You Become, Some People Especially Don't Like It That You're A Woman. I Stick Up For Myself.

It's No Stretch To Picture Me Standing Next To Al Pacino Or Robert De Niro. Those Are Ethnic New York Men. I'm An Ethnic New York Girl. Everybody Has Their Limitations. I Mean, I Should Never Be Cast As Queen Elizabeth.

Men Who Love Their Mothers Treat Women Wonderfully. And They Have Enormous Respect For Women.

Would You Just Strap Some Toe Shoes On And Dance 'swan Lake?' No. Would You Just Put A Violin In Your Hand And - ? No. I Felt That Way About Acting, And I Was Taught To Feel That Way. I Didn't Come To It On My Own.

People Tend To Remember My Performances, Not Me.
