I can't even trust my own imaginary dog. How much lower can a person get?
I would love nothing more to participate in a real struggle to find a character, and really delve into and develop a character. That's why I'm an actor.
I would love to see women be able to be powerful, complex, smart, opinionated and taken seriously, even if they are beautiful. Even more, I would love to see women held to different standards, other than the superficial ones that we're held to.
You can't respect yourself if you're afraid to be who you are.
The sad thing about our society is that women are put in one of two categories. You're either in the beautiful category and you're seen as sexy and beautiful, or some version of that, or you're put into another category. The latter category affords women the opportunity to be smart, funny, independent, mean, strong, intelligent and opinionated. We take them seriously as politicians, if they fit into that latter category. We respect their opinions more and give them higher expectations. That latter category is what allows female actors to be characters.
I'm strong. I'm smart. I'm not a victim,' to my detriment.
It requires bravery to do something no one else around you is doing.
Christ before me, Christ behind me,Christ in me.
One of the reasons, surely, why women have been credited with less perfect veracity than men is that the burden of conventional falsehood falls chiefly on them.
What a different result one gets by changing the metaphor!
For me, it's very offensive when I notice that it's all about my appearance, how I look, that a man doesn't care who I am.
