I'm not terribly consistent, and that worries me.
I tell my kids that something can start with a dream and that, more often than not, you can really go for something if you believe in it.
Just now, I've been working all the time and I don't have much of a personal life.
But because of these different experiences, and often because of their pain, older people's lives are very fascinating to me.
I am beginning slowly to accept myself, accept the less good things about myself.
Movies with Marilyn Monroe really had an impact on me.
Of course, it's good to have fights every once in a while.
What I do requires an openness, and the more open you are, the easier it is to get hurt.
Also, I tend to get totally excited about one thing, then I move on to something else after a while.
For me, directors were like father figures most of the time.
I've really learned that you have to be a lot with yourself mainly with yourself.
I've been taking lessons for a year or so and every time I hear a piano playing, it goes through and through me, so I'm going to buy a little piano.
The worst thing is that I become like the man I'm involved with.
Something very important is missing from my life: consistency.
