I Have A Surfboard That

The World Is What You Make Of It, Friend. If It Doesn’t Fit, You Make Alterations.

I Was A Very Determined Kid. I Couldn't Imagine Any Other Life For Myself. This Happens To Kids Who Are Different In Any Way. How Am I Going To Make A Life? Who Am I Going To Be When I Grow Up? Will There Be A Place For Me In The World? Acting Gave Me A Sense Of Purpose, But It Also Gave Me A Sense That I Would Survive, That I Would Find My Place.

For A While, I Thought, Maybe I Should Direct, Until I Got To New York And Saw The Stupidity Of That Idea. If It's Hard To Get Into Acting, What Is It Like For A Woman To Become A Director?

When I Was Growing Up, Particularly During Puberty In My Teen Years, I Was So Miserable Because I Elicited So Much Teasing And Meanness From My Teenage Cohorts.

I Aspired To Be Extremely Sophisticated.
