We were making the first step out of the age of chemistry and physics and into the age of biology.

I love physical kinds of comedy and getting down and dirty and doing stunts. When I was growing up I was always getting into fights with guys and usually punching out boys my age because I was a lot bigger and tougher. So I'm naturally accustomed to putting myself into the headspace of a girl who can take care of herself.

What makes old age hard to bear is not the failing of one's faculties mental and physical but the burden of one's memories.
