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 tend to be really pragmatic, but ultimately tend to be attracted to people who pull me into more spontaneity. I've really learned that, through surrender, the best experiences of my life have happened.

The Muppets have such a great tradition of bringing together all of genres of actors and all ages of actors.

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.

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?

If I had a project that I had auditioned for and I was getting close to getting it, I didn't want to tell anybody because I thought then I wouldn't get it, but in reality that really had no bearing on whether or not I got a part.

I like Cinderella, I really do. She has a good work ethic. I appreciate a good, hard-working gal. And she likes shoes. The fairy tale is all about the shoe at the end, and I'm a big shoe girl.
