MARGOT KIDDER

My pro-choice activism keeps me busy.

I had always thought of Chris as my kid brother and watching how this kid, as I still thought of him, had affected so many people's lives around the world was incredible.

We were sweet, lovely people who wanted to throw out all the staid institutions who placed money and wars above all else. When you're young you think that's how life works.

Chris was a friend of mine, I loved him. I didn't see him for 18 months before he died, but I'd met him several times after the accident. What was remarkable was his personal growth in his interior life.

The thing about the wacky fans is that they're really sweet.

I liked the fact that Lois was one person with Clark and another with Superman. I think that, as women, we do that a lot when we fall in love.

Horrifying as it was to crack up in the public eye, it made me look at myself and fix it. People were exploitative; that's human nature.

Being pretty crazy while being chased by the National Enquirer is not good. The British tabloids were the worst.

I'd had episodes before, but I swept them under the carpet. This time, I couldn't do that because everyone knew. I got on with the hard work of getting better and haven't had a blip in almost 10 years.

We didn't have movies in this little mining town. When I was 12 my mom took me to New York and I saw Bye Bye Birdie, with people singing and dancing, and that was it.

There's this unspoken club where you say to each other: Oh God, if they only knew how ordinary I was, they wouldn't be interested. That includes movie stars and politicians.

There's a new science out called orthomolecular medicine. You correct the chemical imbalance with amino acids and vitamins and minerals that are naturally in the body.

I love horror movies because they're really fun. They tap into those wonderful primal emotions.

They wanted Bridgette to be this extremely enigmatic character. Im about the least enigmatic person on the planet, so I just thought what I did on the show was boring.

The thing about being famous is, it's weird. The only people who get how weird it is are other famous people.

Acting's fun, but life's more important.

The first Superman film took up a huge chunk of our lives, but it was a wonderful time for us. We were young, my daughter was little, we were filming in London for a year, so we became like a close family.

I'm an old cynic.

I'm a very good screamer, that's for sure.

If you're gonna fall apart, do it in your own bedroom.

I'm a grandmother with dogs and nice friends here in the Rocky mountains. Ever see the movie A River Runs Through It? That's where I live. It's beautiful, no two ways about it.

I went to work and did a lot of homework about what was wrong with me.

Nothing spooky or terrible happened on set, but we were told to say it had. We were giving a press conference and the writers were going on about these terrible things that supposedly happened while we were filming.

This is my year of the remake. Go for it, see what you can do, guys, why not?

You take the cards you're dealt. I'm now ferociously healthy in body and mind. You couldn't pay me to go near a psychiatrist again. Stopping seeing them was my first step to getting well.
