Jessica Lange's quotes
- It took Sydney Pollack a long time to get me to do Tootsie (1982). I asked myself if I wanted to play some frothy, ditzy character after I had just done Frances (1982). Obviously, I'm thrilled that I did.
- For me, acting was always a way to explore emotions - to dip into the well and really try to reach rock bottom down there.
- Coming out of the '60s, when it was still the last gasp of bohemia, I just never thought in terms of career or profession.
- [shading Mia Kirshner's relationship with her ex, Sam Shepard] When I was in my thirties I wasn't fascinated by 70-year-old men. But then, I didn't have to be.
