  • I love my work and I love working hard. But I feel lucky every day that in this capitalist society in which we live, one can make one’s living doing what one loves.
  • If I weren’t an actress I’d like to be an author. Either that or the proprietor of a pool hall in Texas where I’d show cabaret with homosexual undertones.
  • [on working with Madonna in W.E. (2011)] She always said, “I’m here if you need anything from me”, but she gave us a sense of freedom in regards to embodying the characters. When it came to shooting, she’s a very visual, detailed director. She loves blocking things out. Before I walked on-set, she would choose my shoes and jewelery. It was her little ritual.
