Memory is a sly devil that pretends to wear the cloak of truth, but deceives us both in our youth and our age.
Something pretty... that's just the surface. People worry so much about aging, but you look younger if you don't worry about it.

Boys are beyond the range of anybody's sure understanding, at least when they are between the ages of 18 months and 90 years.
But we're all so different, we're different ages; we're not vying for the same roles. There's no competition, there's really kind of a sisterhood, on and off the set, you know?
