I don't want to act just to be on the screen doing anything and looking any kind of way.

I don't want to be dragging myself on stage, year in year out, until someone else tells me it is time to go. There are certain birthdays that make you revalue your life.

I heard stories from my mother's mother who was an American Indian. She was spiritual, although she did not go to church, but she had the hum. She used to tell me stories of the rivers.

I know the difference between black magic and white magic.

For me the goddess is the female of God, She is powerful if different.

I want to know what the difference between the essence of a man and woman is.

I never had that thing about being black. If the whole world was like that, maybe there would be more harmony and love.

I'm not wise, but the beginning of wisdom is there; it's like relaxing into - and an acceptance of - things.

Movies are movies: they take you back in time, and how it still is for some.

It just feels like Erwin and me... even at night I don't feel I have to look pretty in bed.

In the USA there is no female equivalent to god.

In Tennessee where I grew up, there were animals, farms, wagons, mules.

In Buddhism there are words you can say... as you say the words with rhythm the conscious tells the subconscious.

I'm pleased with my life, with the journey.

I regret not having had more time with my kids when they were growing up.
