Obviously, it wasn't meant for me to die of cancer at 40. Every day my life surprises me, just like my cancer diagnosis surprised me. But you roll with it. That's our job as humans.

There's a little good and bad in everyone. Everybody I've ever loved is very complicated.

I'm a very ritualistic, routine-oriented person, and I discovered over the years that I love working Monday through Friday.

I grew up kind of a tomboy and I used to fight with all the neighborhood boys.

It's hard to notice things without people noticing me and that takes some getting used to.

I don't have examples in my life of people who are all good or bad; I have deeply loved many people who are both, and I relate to those kinds of people on a far greater level.

I think that you do get a little extra jolt of confidence when you win an Emmy.
