Acting is my number one, but dancing will always be a part of who I am and in my heart. I love doing stunts when they are a part of my acting.
I'm actually embarrassed to tell people I'm Russian these days, because it's become such an awful place.
The ability to have a choice in what you do is a privilege.
There's only a handful of people I trust completely, and I know who they are. Other than that, I pretty much don't trust people.
In a relationship when things are really great you don't need to say anything and just enjoy the other person. Sometimes with a couple, it gets dark and you don't know what to say and that silence can last all day. Other times you don't want to stop talking because you don't want to lose one another.
I like film because it brings you very close to the absurd reality that you might spend a day shooting and not get a single image that you like or works, and you won't really know for a few days at least as you wait. It connects you and grounds you to a material reality and a patience that seems lost with digital. I also think the grain texture remains forever different, and in my opinion, what I find to be more beautiful.
I was drawn to photography as an extension of film, and the beauty of film is that it's a sensuous, fetishistic medium.
What Tully said of war may be applied to disputing: "It should be always so managed as to remember that the only true end of it is peace. " But generally true disputants are like true sportsmen,--their whole delight is in the pursuit; and the disputant no more cares for the truth than the sportsman for the hare.
I haven't had to struggle very much. I haven't paid my dues. I think I have been lucky.
I was really lucky because I went to an all-girl school and that single sex education really helped me because I really learned to bond with women and to not compete with or compare myself as much because we were all allowed to be ourselves and be unique and kind of have our unique strengths.
Discipline yourself, so no one else has to.
