I have a small child, so the idea of getting up at 3 a.m. to train before a day of shooting... I just don't have it in me, although I have so much respect for people who do.

Anyone who falls in love is a freak. Its like a socially acceptable form of insanity.

I find that in life all you can do is try to be honest about who you are and how you're feeling, and trust that it will be received in the correct way.

I come from musical theater, and a lot of musical theater is about accepting fantasy. I think it is more about just being open and accepting.

I probably never would have been hired on Broadway had I not moved out to LA and pursued acting and film, which is sad really.

I'm pretty Sicilian if I've been crossed. I don't seek revenge, but I never forget. And I make it hard to repair, which is not a great quality because if people held me to that standard, no one would be around me - ever.

My job as an actress is to make things work and come up with reasons of my own and not just fill in the blanks for anybody else, you know what I mean?
