Albuquerque is my home. I want my kids and all of our children to be able to go to any public or charter school and receive an excellent education.
I'm not one to wallow, but I am one to feel the sting of a slap for a while, I think.
I really like to cook and have dinner parties and I like to clean, it really clears my head and it makes me feel good to keep my home as a comfortable place.
I just want to be able to be creative.
I think the reason I like making movies sometimes more than doing TV is that you have one task, you only have a certain amount of time to do it, and then it is done. And I really like focusing in that way.
I want to keep growing and I want to be an actress for as long as I can.
You have to be really careful to watch out for the difference between banding together, and being grouped together by people who don't understand you.
We always seem to be surprised by events, especially by catastrophes, but also by wonderful events. Look at 1990, the year that the Soviet Union collapsed and apartheid in South Africa collapsed and the Berlin Wall came down. I don't know anyone who foresaw those events. It seems to me that as a species we are constantly trying to adapt ourselves to the unexpected. In the meantime, we talk as if we are in control, and we're not. This seems to me to be the truth about the twentieth century.
I'm not going to sit here now and say 'do this,' or 'do that. ' But you must - must - expunge any vestige of racism.
I remember when I was a private soldier. I remember the days when I was taken care of and when I was not taken care of.
Nothing in the world is so incontinent as a man's accursed appetite.
