More quotes by Julie Kavner

I’m very, very private; I don’t enjoy talking about myself to strangers...Particularly strangers with tapes going.

I was brought up not to be selfish or self-centered. So if you play somebody who isn't so lovable, you can play that person and no one will turn on you.

I feel that you reach a certain age and then things start to jell. My sense of self is stronger. I'm getting bolder in my old age. After I hit forty, you couldn't mess around with me so much anymore.
