I really am profoundly grateful just in general in my life. I've had an embarrassing amount of good fortune.

I sort of love reading the scripts and going, 'Oh wow, what a great idea. I never would have thought of that.

Addiction has had such an impact on my life and the people I love, and there really is not a lot about it that is funny. So the last thing I wanted was to give the impression that it’s all fun and games, and isn’t it funny what she gets away with.

I think there was a time when I considered myself a work addict, but that's no longer accurate. My life has changed so dramatically over the last number of years, especially having a family now. My priorities have shifted.

I've never been all that interested or aware of what people are thinking about me or saying about me. I think that has kept me safest and sanest.

I love being able to take a nap in the afternoon.

I've watched those shows my whole life - being on one is like a dream. It's hard to balance that dream with the fact that this is the Edie I've known my whole life.
