Also everyone`s hearts are in the right place when you do a small movie. You`re not doing it for the money; you`re not doing it for the possibility of an Oscar nomination. You are doing it because you love the material.

I have too much respect for the characters I play to make them anything but as real as they can possibly be. I have a great deal of respect for all of them, otherwise I wouldn`t do them. And I don`t want to screw them by not portraying them honestly.

It`s an unattainable goal to be good at everything. - as quoted in Woman`s World.

It was such a lovely, lovely, lovely night, and I was so happy to have my daughter and my husband there. And it does mean something. It means something in the industry, and it means something on a personal level. It was also a chance for me to get up there and thank the people I wanted to thank. It means a lot to me to say in a public way how much I love doing the show and what a great gift it has been for me and to thank the people who are a part of it. (On her Golden Globe win)
