And in Hollywood, you know, everyone is an expert. Most of them are expert editors. They can't direct, they can't write, they can't act, but, by God, they all think they can edit.

I think, unfortunately or fortunately, the reality of Hollywood is that if your movie makes money, they'll make another one.

I think all women in Hollywood are known as sex symbols. That's what our purpose is in this business. You're merchandised, you're a product. You're sold and it's based on sex. But that's okay. I think women should be empowered by that, not degraded.

I think everybody dreamt somehow to make a film in Hollywood, you know.

Everything was in stark and dreadful contrast with the trivial crises and counterfeit emotions of Hollywood, and I returned to England deeply moved and emotionally worn out.

How did I get to Hollywood? By train.

Hollywood's got its own particular environment.

You can't find any true closeness in Hollywood, because everybody does the fake closeness so well.

Hollywood hasn't aggressively pursued me. Neither have I aggressively pursued Hollywood.

Generally, Hollywood makes the same stories over and over. I've never wanted to do the same thing twice. If a script doesn't surprise me in some way, I simply can't commit to the project.

I was told once that I didn't play the Hollywood game, and that's why I wasn't a big star. What they meant when was that I don't go to parties, and when I go to an audition and I don't like the script, they know it.

Women do feel like they're in a box. Society, Hollywood, some men-they want to wrap women up in a neat little package.

Hollywood is a place where a man can get stabbed in the back while climbing a ladder.

I was raised in Hollywood and knew, from as early as grammar school, classmates who were in the business.

I do Broadway because I refuse to succumb to the stereotypical things that Hollywood does to a performer.
