My mother's passion for something more, to write a different destiny for a dirt-poor farmer's daughter, was to shape my entire life.

Years are not important, my dear.

Well, softness and femininity like yours people don't expect of me; so when they find me emotional and capable of real vulnerability, they're surprised.

I still have, I hope, a lot of years and there are still a lot of things I want to do.

You just sort of let them go for a while, but it was time to have something done to my teeth. I'm glad. It's going to be good. Tom Cruise has braces now, too. I'm right in style.

It's interesting as one grows older to keep in touch with the cutting edge.

I mean, I was always interested in people like Lenny Bruce, people who are breaking the old rules and making new ones.

It's true, I did a lot of great movies, and I'm happy. It was what it was, and now I think all of that has fed into where I am now, and I think it has taught me a lot.

I often say the last role I played that really touched me and where I was able to access what I really am was Bonnie, which is kind of sad when you think how early in my career that was.

I'm kind of a recluse.

So many people are called but few serve as actors, you know what I mean?

Since Star Wars, that film's success led to bigger budgets, more hardware, that the great movies like the ones I did, which were studio movies, are now independent movies. They range from half a million to several million, and a lot of those have very interesting roles.

Do you know what I'm working on now? My first feature as a director.

God bless McNally, it's got some fantastic stuff in it, but it's no easy task to make a movie out of.

I've been working on this feature script for Master Class, a play by Terrence McNally that won a lot of Tonys.

I'm still the little southern girl from the wrong side of the tracks who really didn't feel like she belonged.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

I have two children. I have a daughter 29, and a daughter four. They are 25 years apart, so you speak about generations and I must tell you, I have a philosophy and that is every 25 years I'm going to sire another child.

I love being a mother. I loved being a daughter, a sister, a wife. I love being a woman with men. I love having given birth.

My real achievement is my daughter and my three beautiful grandchildren.

I didn't just want to be Frank's daughter who sang Boots. I take my music very seriously and studied very hard. It's not a joke to me.

If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter.

I want to be here for a long time, so I am going to do everything I have to do to be here. And I want to walk my daughter down the aisle and give her away to somebody some day. I want to make sure I am still here to make sure my two young sons become men.

I guess I was a mom so late in life, my daughter was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

For Ryan's Daughter I used a total of eight harps, something that was, at least, weird.
