I feel that its our children who do give us hope because they are the ones who are going to save the world.

I try to avoid a specific image. I seek to play as many different women as I can to avoid having a label put on me.

I've always just adored music. It's my first love, really. I admire and respect people in the music business. You really have to work hard and diligently. Sometimes actors can be lazy and get away with it, but you can't do that if you're a musician.

It was in high school that I first became interested in acting. We put on lots of plays.

I'm not an actor who can constantly pick and choose, I try to get the best of what's there.

I can't always pick and choose, but I try very hard to take the roles where they are a bit more human. Sometimes there's a hilarious thing that comes along and it might not be the most interesting character, but I'm just delighted to be able to do something.

Whether you're on TV or on the stage, you have to work hard to stay fresh, real, and full of energy. You can't settle back. You always have to stay on your toes.
