The best thing a person can be is of-some-use.
If you walk down the street and smile at someone, that will get passed on to the next person. That has the power to change someone's day.
The reason I met my husband was because I remembered a friend's birthday. The moral of the story is: Remember people's birthdays.
I have learned to go fully in the face of my dreams. I would recommend you do the same. Now is the time in your life to be selfish. To explore. To take chances. Remember being selfish is not the same as being self-indulgent. You have the gift of time. Use it to do what you love. Believe anything is possible and then work like hell to make it happen.
Believe anything is possible and then work like hell to make it happen.
What a wonderful time for women on television.
The power of saying no is so much more than the power of saying yes.
I am such a scaredy-cat.
Small gestures can have a big impact.
I was never much of a kid person. I mean, I thought they were cute to look at, but I didn't want them in my house.
I think the whole world should try not talking for a day.
I'm too old-school to tweet.
A good wife is someone who thinks she has done everything right: raising the kids, being there for the husband, being home, trying to do it all.
Do what you love doing.
I'd rather go back to waitressing than play a character that I hate.
It might be scary because you're taking a risk, but at the end of the day you can say you tried.
I'm one of those pathetic actors who will say yes to every play reading just because I do miss the stage so much. What I really miss about the theater is that in the end, it's yours to give. In television and film, it's yours to do and someone else's to take and someone else's to give. As much as I love television - the biggest luxury of all is to know that you have a job to go to - I do miss that connection and having that power over my own performance on stage.
I love being one half of a romantic couple.
You never stop learning your craft. That's the key to success within yourself as an actor.
You do your best work when you feel safe.
The hardest thing about being an actor, and especially when you're a woman trying to also have a family and a relationship, is to maintain some sort of normalcy. With television, you might not be home a lot, but you have a routine.
That's what I love about acting, you get to find little pieces of yourself in every character you play.
I've done so many independent movies I'm sure no one will ever see, but I've loved the work.
I'm one of those strange people: I really love going to the gym.
I'm the kind of person who always has to be on time and I'm incredibly professional.
