Quotes

• “I’m not a consciously political person, I suppose, except in a psychological sense, in an emotional sense. I understand very little of politics in terms of governments and foreign policy and so my response to them, and to the play, was intuitive and not intellectual.”
• “Power is one thing if you have a very rigid sense of morality backing it up. It’s very hard to put the source of one’s power into that role, it’s like choosing to put the positive piece of yourself into something you feel is not right.”
• “I do like it. I get a kick out of it!”
• “They tease me about the Oscar, about having won the Oscar. But sweetly!”
• “I can't be a man. But I can embrace the head of a man, the intelligence of a man, the spirit of a man.”
• “Everybody either wanted to take care of me or push me around, you know? I was teased a lot, sure I was, of course. Fourth grade, fifth grade, sixth grade, everybody was taking their spurts except me. I was not growing up.”
