When you learn how much bycatch comes from shrimp [and how destructive it is] - I'm not going to eat shrimp anymore.

The word diva has a negative connotation.

I think the diva is kind of a cliche. My definition of a diva is somebody whose talent does not match what they're trying to play, so all this temperament comes out.

It's not good to be in a situation where people don't want to direct you or don't want to question something.

I love Ron Howard, he's a wonderful director, incredibly prepared. But I have to criticize my performance in that movie. It all took place in one day. My character was having a bad day, so she's having a bad day throughout the whole movie. But this was a comedy, and I think I was too serious, too dense. Yes, I think that describes my failure there.

I had a dresser who literally squeezed me in like Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With The Wind.

And when you're with a great crew like we had, it becomes a thrilling, again, collaboration, which is to me one of the great aspects of the process that you go through. I find myself at this point in my career, getting potentially, incredibly bored if I stand around a lot, so that's why I really like the pace of television.
