Best not block the exit

Williams as Monroe in My Week With Marilyn, 2011

“Acting sometimes reminds me of therapy in that the more you talk about a traumatic or profound event, the more it loses its emotional tension. The trick is to live in so much mystery, to rely on a feeling, an instinct, on faith, really, that everything I need is already inside me, and best I just don’t block the exit.”

– Michelle Williams (New York Times, Sept. 4, 2008)
