Happiness lies in moments, and while you have it, you're not even aware; only afterwards do you know you were happy.

I don't believe in anything artificial. I don't believe in makeup.

Take a person like Julia Roberts: she does what she wants.

I don't believe in acting. I think that people in life act, but when you are on the stage or, in my case, also on screen, you have to be true.

I had immense ambition to become a really valuable actress.

In a few days an officer came to our camp, under a flag of truce, and informed Hamilton, then a captain of artillery, but afterwards the aid of General Washington, that Captain Hale had been arrested within the British lines condemned as a spy, and executed that morning.

I never let politics get personal. You can have the most intense, heated debate on issues, and so long as you keep it on issues, you can go out and have coffee afterwards and you're good friends.

I know I've been lucky. But it's what you do with that luck afterwards that really defines whether you stick around.
