Life does not owe me a shred.
We all have a way to contribute, to your community, to your family, whatever it is you can do.
I'm trying to live every moment as much as I can.
I really want Americans, and all of us, to be less afraid of death, and know that it's a passage, but that - don't go to the funeral before the day of the funeral.
I used to get some ego thing out of saying I wasn't a star, just an actress. Forget it. I'm a star. I wanted it. I worked for it. I got it.
