is shut off, or you’re gone from
the world, but it’s exactly
opposite. You are more
embedded into the world. It’s a
way of love that includes everyone
that you’ve ever loved.’’

44. “I never considered my
decision as “walking away
from Hollywood,” I felt it was
more — walking into
something more significant

with me. I really loved my work
and the people I worked with.
