One Thing About Being Successful Is That

I Feel Cheated Never Being Able To Know What It's Like To Get Pregnant, Carry A Child And Breast-feed.

Tom [courtenay] And Albert Finney Met Ron Harwood On The Dresser, So That's How It Started. It's A Wonderful Documentary. It's Called Tosca's Kiss And Mr Hardwood Told Me About It When I Asked Him What The Genesis Was. It Was Made In 1983 And Verdi, Who Was Rich And Successful, Toward The End Of His Life Decided To Build A Mansion For Himself In Milan, Where He Lived, And He Stipulated That When He Died Opera Singers And Musicians - Because He Knew So Many Who Were No Longer Playing At The Scala And Some Were Poor - Could Live There.

Acting Didn't Solve Much! If It Did, I Would Have Ended Up Much Less Crazy Than I Am Today, But I'm Not. At Least For Me, Acting Is A Relief - A Relief To Be Able To Admit Certain Things About Myself And Disguise In My Work, In My Characters.

I Think 'retirement' Goes Hand In Hand With People Who Make A Living By Having A 'job.' I Don't Think We-the .00001 Percent Of The Population Who Are So Fortunate To Love Passionately What We Do-consider It A 'job.

It's Very Painful For Us To Feel We Deserve A Life. That's The Toughest Thing. That We Deserve To Have A Life. That Can Take A Lifetime.
