I'm better for all the things that have happened to me, the good and the bad.
I like a good old-fashioned fistfight if people are pissed off at each other. I just feel like if you're really mad and want to have a fight, then put your dukes up.
That is the great joy: to go to work with people that you love, whether they be people that you are in love with or people that you just love, and be creative and artistic and make things that you want to send out into the world and make people feel good.
Sally Field taught me to do needlepoint on 'Steel Magnolias,' and a standby painter on 'Pelican Brief' taught me to knit. I'm pretty good at it now!
I'd tell her, 'Cover your tracks. Accentuate the positive. Appreciate things. Just know that every single moment of anything remotely good is a gift.'
All I can do is just do good work. As far as selling tickets is concerned, that's completely out of my hands.
