I don't feel like a grandmother. I don't.
People said I was king, but I was never king, and I say I'm the prime minister.
I auditioned for 'West Side Story' and got the part of Tony, but wasn't allowed to do it. They needed me to play trumpet. But I was glad, in the end, because I learned a lot about playing that score.
I don't consider myself an educator.
In fifth grade, I did 'Oklahoma!,' but I didn't get a leading role. I knew the whole play and could sing it already, but they were like, 'The sixth-grader has to get the lead.' I was really discouraged.
I can't imagine that anyone in Hollywood is sitting around trying to decide what actor is good or right or qualified for a role and is being denied a role because of their political views. I don't think that's the way Hollywood works. We're not living in an era of blacklisting.
I'm not a babysitter.
I'm not a striker, I'm not a goalscorer - I'm a midfielder.
I'm not a player; I'm an alien.
I wasn't a defender and I didn't think of myself as one.
