सभी रचनात्मक लेखकों को उस समय के दौरान थोड़ी एकांत की ज़रूरत होती है जब वे कुछ बना रहे होते हैं, जहाँ कोई भी उनकी आलोचना न करे - बिल्कुल भी नहीं। भले ही आलोचना सही या अच्छी हो, उन्हें चुप रहना चाहिए और उस व्यक्ति को सृजन करने देना चाहिए। क्योंकि एक बिंदु पर आपको इसे अपना बनाना होता है - दुनिया का नहीं, बल्कि अपना खुद का।
all creative writers need a certain amount of time when they're creating something where nobody should criticize them at all - at all. Even if the criticism is valid or good, they should just shut up, and let that person create. Because at a certain point you have to make it your own - not the world's, but your own.

जिंदा रहने की शिकायत करना फिजूल है। दुखी होना तो बस खुद को लाड़ लड़ाने जैसा है।
You just can't complain about being alive. It's self-indulgent to be unhappy. When asked how she has coped since husband's death.

अगर कोई ऐसी बात है जिसे मैं भूलना चाहती हूँ, तो मैं उसे भूल जाती हूँ।
If I have something I like to forget, then I forget it.

स्वतंत्र फिल्मों से जुड़े लोगों में एक जुनून होता है; वे पैसे के लिए काम नहीं करते।
People in independent film have a passion; they're not in it for the money.

किसी किरदार को निभाने के बाद, आप उसे अपना ही मानने लगते हैं।
After you play a part, you think of it as your own.

मुझे स्वतंत्र सिनेमा बहुत पसंद है। मैं इसकी बहुत सी बातों से सहमत नहीं होती, लेकिन यही तो इसकी खासियत है।
I love independent filmmaking. I don't agree with a lot of it, but that's the point.

तो मैं घर गई और अपनी माँ से कहा कि मैं पढ़ाई छोड़कर अभिनेत्री बनना चाहती हूँ, तो उन्होंने कहा, "वाह, यह तो बहुत दिलचस्प है। यह तो बहुत अच्छी बात है!" और जब मैंने अपने पिता को बताया, तो उन्होंने साफ कहा, "अगर तुम्हें खुशी मिलती है, तो तुम हाथी को ट्रेन करना चाहो तो भी मुझे कोई परवाह नहीं।"
So I went home and I told my mom that I wanted to quit and be an actress and she said, “Huh, that sounds fascinating. It’s wonderful!” And I told my father and he literally said, “I don’t care if you want to be an elephant trainer if it makes you happy.”

मैंने अपनी पूरी जिंदगी में कभी भी अभिनेत्री बनने के अलावा कुछ और बनने के बारे में सोचा तक नहीं।
Never in my life have I ever even thought about anything else [ being anything other than an actress].

[जॉन कैसावेट्स] बाद में बैकस्टेज आए और उन्होंने अपना परिचय दिया, हमने थोड़ी बात की, और फिर पास के रशियन टी रूम में कॉफी पीने चले गए। बस... वहीं से शुरुआत हो गई।
[John Cassavetes] came backstage afterwards and introduced himself and we talked a bit, and then went for a little coffee at the Russian Tea Room next door. It just...started.

मैं अपनी फिल्में सिर्फ एक बार देखती हूँ, ताकि समझ सकूँ कि वे कैसी बनी हैं, लेकिन उसके बाद मैं उन्हें दोबारा नहीं देखती। जिन लोगों के साथ आपने काम किया है, उनमें से कई अब इस दुनिया में नहीं रहे, उन्हें देखकर मुझे कभी-कभी दुख होता है, और मुझे उन्हें दोबारा देखने की कोई जरूरत महसूस नहीं होती। मैंने उन्हें बना लिया, वे फिल्म में दर्ज हो गए, बात खत्म।
I only watch my movies that I make once, so I can just see how it hangs together, but after that, I don't watch them again. A lot of people have disappeared from Earth that you've worked with, and they make me sort of sad once in a while, and there's really no necessity for me to watch them. I've made them, and it's on film and that's that.

'अ वुमन अंडर द इन्फ्लुएंस' मेरी पसंदीदा फिल्म थी। मुझे उसे करने में बहुत मजा आया। और वह चुनौतीपूर्ण भी थी।
A Woman Under the Influence was my favorite. I loved doing that. And it was challenging.

बचपन से लेकर जवानी और बुढ़ापे तक, मैं बेट डेविस की प्रशंसक रही हूँ।

जॉन कैसावेट्स ने 'अ वुमन अंडर द इन्फ्लुएंस' को एक नाटक के रूप में लिखा था। उन्होंने कहा, "देखो, मैंने तुम्हारे लिए एक नाटक लिखा है।" मैंने कहा, "बहुत बढ़िया, चलो इसे पढ़ते हैं।" मैंने पढ़ा और कहा, "जॉन, मैं इसे हर रात और बुधवार व शनिवार को दो बार नहीं कर सकती।"
John Cassavetes wrote A Woman Under the Influence as a play. He said, "Hey, I wrote you a play." And I said, "Great, let's read it." I read it and I said, "John, I couldn't do this every night and twice on Wednesday and Saturday".

जब मैं विस्कॉन्सिन यूनिवर्सिटी में थी, तब मैं अपने माता-पिता के पास गई, क्योंकि अब मुझसे और इंतजार नहीं हो रहा था, मुझे अभिनेत्री बनना था।
When I went to my parents I was at the University of Wisconsin, and I just couldn't wait anymore to go be an actress.

मैं पूरी जिंदगी बस यही [अभिनेत्री] बनना चाहती थी।
I'd wanted to be [an actress] all my life.

जाहिर है, मंच पर बार-बार एक ही भावुक किरदार निभाने की तुलना में फिल्म में उसे करना कहीं ज्यादा आसान होता है।
Of course, much easier to do a film when you're doing an extremely emotional part than it is doing it onstage over and over especially.

मुझे लगता है कि मेरे माता-पिता दुनिया के इकलौते ऐसे माता-पिता हैं जिन्होंने अभिनेत्री बनने के मेरे फैसले का कभी विरोध नहीं किया।
I think I have the only parents in the world who would not have said something against become an actress.

शुरुआत में, या बाद में भी, मुझे जितनी आजादी मिली, उतनी शायद ही किसी और को मिलती होगी। वह [जॉन कैसावेट्स] अपना काम करते थे और मैं जो मुझे सही लगता था, वह करती थी।
It was more freedom than I think most people get when they're starting out - or even when they're not starting out. He [John Cassavetes] did his thing and I did whatever I thought.

जॉन [कैसावेट्स] कलाकारों से बहुत प्यार करते थे। वह उन्हें काफी आजादी देते थे। इसलिए अगर किसी कलाकार के मन में उस पल कोई बात आती थी और वह उसे कह देता था - तो वह उस तरह के इम्प्रोवाइजेशन (सहज अभिनय) को स्वीकार कर लेते थे। वह बहुत कम निर्देश देते थे।
John [Cassavetes] loved actors. He gave them a lot of freedom. So if something came up that a certain actor just felt at the moment and said - that kind of improvisation he would accept. He gave very little direction.

उस नाटक ['अ वुमन अंडर द इन्फ्लुएंस'] को हर रात करना बहुत मुश्किल था। जॉन कैसावेट्स ने कहा, "चिंता मत करो। इसके बारे में सोचो भी मत, तुम सही कह रही हो। मैंने इस बारे में सोचा ही नहीं था।" उन्होंने कहा, "बस इसे भूल जाओ।"
It was a very hard play [Woman Under the Influence] to do every night. And John Cassavetes said, "Don't worry. Don't even think about it, you're right. I hadn't thought of that." He said, "Just forget it."

बेट डेविस की अपनी राय बहुत पक्की थी और वह उसे जाहिर करने से कभी नहीं डरती थीं। मैंने उन्हें कभी किसी चीज से डरते नहीं देखा। और वह बहुत मजाकिया थीं। वह बस खुशमिजाज थीं और हर वक्त हंसती रहती थीं।
Bette Davis had very strong opinions and was not afraid to express them. She wasn't afraid of anything that I ever saw. And she was so funny. She's just funny and she was laughing all the time.

मैंने अमेरिकन एकेडमी ऑफ ड्रामेटिक आर्ट्स में दाखिला लिया, जो कार्नेगी हॉल में थी, और सिर्फ वहां कदम रखना ही अपने आप में बहुत रोमांचक था।
I went to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, which was in Carnegie Hall, which itself was exciting - just to walk into it.

मैं बेट डेविस को बहुत पसंद करती थी और उनके साथ काम करने का मौका मिलना [1979 की टीवी फिल्म 'स्ट्रेंजर्स: द स्टोरी ऑफ अ मदर एंड डॉटर' में] मेरे लिए बहुत बड़ी बात थी।
I just loved Bette Davis and the fact that I had a chance to work with her [on the 1979 TV movie Strangers: The Story of a Mother and Daughter] was momentous.

जॉन कैसावेट्स मुझसे एक साल सीनियर थे लेकिन हम वहीं मिले थे। ड्रामा स्कूल में फाइनल एग्जाम की जगह आपको एक नाटक करना होता था। जिसे भी आना हो, वह आ सकता था। तो वह आए, और मुझे नाटक का नाम याद नहीं है, जाहिर है, बहुत पुरानी बात है।
John Cassavetes was a year ahead of me but we met there. What you do when you are at a school for drama, you do a play as opposed to a final. Anyone who wanted to come could just come. So he came, and I can't remember the name of the play, of course, it was a long time ago.
