Personal Quotes:

"It doesn't bring out the Einstein moment that you hoped it would.” (When she forgot someone during her Academy Award acceptance speech)

The reason why Julia will never do a nude scene: "I just don't feel that my algebra teacher should ever know what my butt looks like.“

"You can be true to the character all you want, but you've go to go home with yourself."

Some stuff ..
