I never wear leather.

I have a sister who`s kind of in the business-she does voice-overs. I think they all watch what I go through and have decided to get married and have children instead. It`s a safer bet.

They`re my favorite two words these days: Oscar reject.

I`ve been in the bargain basement of the movie business.

Sometimes I have to work because I need the money. You weigh the issues and ask yourself, "Can I wake up every morning and do this?"

Chazz Palminteri is just the ultimate screen husband.

In the end it`s about the work, not an award you get for the work.

I`m convinced my mother only had sex eight times.

I don`t look at scripts in terms of commerciality. I just look at the part, the people involved.

I would like to do maybe a smaller romantic comedy.

Teens aren`t just interested in getting laid. I won`t believe that`s all they`re interested in. I have four younger sisters and they`re sick of being shown how they`re supposed to react in bed.

It didn`t rain today, so I didn`t have to work. Why don`t you have to sit around and wait until it rains?

Marriage is a financial contract; I have enough contracts already.

You can talk about movies all you want, but I have this porcelain fetish. I`ve had it since I was a kid, because there were so many kids in my family, the only place I had any solace was in the bathroom.

As actors, the thing we have to fight, more than even the business part of making movies, is boredom.

I was still making movies so it wasn`t as if I were working in a bar, but they were independent films that couldn`t find distributors.

I would love to have children, yes. Maybe even adopt them. I`m not sure that I should pass on my genes.

I go to bed with men, not boys.

I go to bed with men, not boys.

Men think that I`m going to say no to them: That`s just what they perceive. Men don`t approach me. So I have to be the aggressor.

The thing that`s always bothered me is that, even if you have a strong female character, invariably in the third act she has to say something like, "I`m sorry, I didn`t mean to hurt you," or she has to become really vulnerable and wimpy and get her comeuppance. Even in something like Thelma & Louise (1991), where you have these two very strong characters, they have to die in the end. What`s so special about The Last Seduction (1994) is that none of that happens. Had a Hollywood studio made that film instead of an independent, it would have been very different. She definitely wouldn`t have gotten away with what she does get away with.

All I`m thinking about today is cleaning my bathroom.

If I`m not afraid when I`m reading a script, that means I know I`ve done it before. If I read something and think, Wow, I can`t play this part, then I want to play it more.

You constantly have to find something that`s challenging, a director who`s challenging, co-stars who are challenging. That`s what keeps us going.

Do you know what my real name is? It`s Clorinda. Which is also Italian. They used to call me Clorox when I was a kid.

[on getting the part of Bethany in Dogma (1999)] When I read the script, I just said, "There`s no way anyone else is allowed to have this part". I thought it was extremely clever and it had very imaginative answers to all my childhood questions about angels and devils and the apostles and all that stuff.

People over 30 are interested in sex too, but they get real movies about it.

Sometimes the only thing we women want is a dick and no arguments. What could make us happier?

He allowed us to choreograph the sex scenes.
