"Art comes from life, not from the studio"

-- Marina Abramovic

“I play very sweet characters, so people look at me like I'm the kid from 'The Wonder Years,' rather than Brad Pitt.”
“My research has shown me that when emotions are expressed-which is to say that the biochemicals that are the substrate of emotion are flowing freely-all systems are united and made whole. When emotions are repressed, denied, not allowed to be whatever they may be, our network pathways get blocked, stopping the flow of the vital feel-good, unifying chemicals that run both our biology and our behavior.”

“I've always been interested in the camera and the effects of it - that's what drew me to film in the first place.”

“With breast cancer, it's all about detection. You have to educate young women and encourage them to do everything they have to do.”
“We fail to see the purifying and refining effect wrought by the flames of adversity. These flames are not meant to consume but only to purify us. Disguised as adversity, blessings are showered upon us.”
“Our civilization is first and foremost a civilization of means; in the reality of modern life, the means, it would seem, are more important than the ends.”
