Kathleen Turner

You shouldn't get to live in society and give nothing back. People complain about their taxes, yet they do nothing for the community. That makes me furious.

I'm very old-fashioned in some ways because of my father, who thought that being a public servant was an honor. Everyone must find a capacity in which they can serve, because we all benefit from society.

I think Europeans have enough tradition and respect for the experience and body of work of an actress that they don't sell out to the new ones.

I'm not very active politically. The causes I work on offer immediate, practical, accessible help, and politics has never meant that to me.

I have health. I have a wonderful support system. I have the admiration of millions of strangers, which I do not underestimate.

A woman can plan when to have her family and how to support a family.

What makes me angry? The education of children. How in God's name can you expect to have a functioning society the way we teach our kids?

Being a sex symbol has to do with an attitude, not looks. Most men think it's looks, most women know otherwise.

A woman my age is not supposed to be attractive or sexually appealing. I just get kinda tired of that.

It begins and ends with money. It's absurd in this day and age when we need so much money for education, health, for people, that a $100 million dollars can be spent on a film. It's obscene.
