I don't really like horror shows, horror movies, or any of that. I'm really a lightweight, in terms of that.

It’s more than just saying lines and turning the light on. You have to drive the story - there’s a technical aspect.

Of course you want to do all the research that you can, but it's impossible to take a life and the boundaries of an hour and a half, so there is hope there will be understanding about that also.

I really believe that what I do as an actress is my God-given talent. This is my calling, not my career.

When you ask the best questions of yourself and others, you invite the best answers.

When I got married, I was all in love, but then came life intruding in, and sometimes it's difficult ... I would look at my husband and ask, 'did we do it too quickly?' ... But my husband was strong in his resolve. He kept reminding me that people go through this, and that we were going to be ok.

The three things I said when I came out of school were I want to work consistently, I want to do good work and I want to be paid fairly, and that's happened. But I didn't become an actress for the money. I do it for other reasons.
