I think people who make movies and have invested a lot of money in them, get frightened that if they challenge an audience they are going to repel them. And I think the opposite it's really true. It takes confidence and courage to know that and then commit to it.

I think it distinguishes television from every other medium. It's what makes it kind of radical, and risky, and fun.

I love love and falling in love, but it can get pretty flat real fast.

I've always very earnestly tried to do my best, so I just have to trust that and forgive myself for being fallible.

Money or no money, acting is my calling.

There was a solid year and a half, perhaps two years, after making 'Temple Grandin,' when I didn't do anything. I just didn't have much patience for roles that were silly, or light, or inconsequential.

My skin is a bit sensitive, so Cetaphil is my standby. I also use toner and a light layer of moisturizer—I use a lot of Kiehl's and other natural brands.
