The world gets very small after a while, if you stick around long enough.

I have lots of friends and, like me, they're not married. So my kids have lots of godparents - men and women, gay and straight. My loft is always filled with people helping me out with them and loving them.

I love to hand sew. I sometimes make clothing for my children, which of course they grow out of in a matter of minutes. I thoroughly love it.

Writers, actors, anybody working on an ensemble-type thing, there are going to be some creaks in the beginning. It seems like there's tremendous potential in just letting things sort of breathe a little bit. It's tremendously important.

I actually washed my window once, and it fell through - it was being held together by the dirt.

I'm just not one of those people who thought having biological children was that important, to me it was more about wanting to raise a child.
