When I'm not working, my time is really about my children.

It was not really a career choice that I had to make. It was something I knew right from the beginning. I had to be an actress... period.

I would take up any small job on the sets, just so that I could hang around with the hope of getting noticed.

I was a fighter and very determined. There was no way I was going to back out without winning.

When I was first starting out, if you were acting on television, it was a real stigma.

I don't want to fight aging; I want to take good care of myself, but plastic surgery and all that? I'm not interested.

I like to take up something that is challenging. I like to stretch myself.
