I stopped trying to chase the perfect place to be, and realized the perfect place is with your loved ones and your closest friends, around the dinner table, over a good meal, talking about the past year and the year to come and things that you want to change in your life. You hear their stories and talk about things you'd like to see happen in the world. That's what we do.

I'm always looking for opportunities, even when they're not offered to me. I will have no hesitation to pick up the phone and call a director or call a writer.

New Yorkers have this special spot in Central Park, where they do this 5K run, the minute the clock strikes twelve. I ran once, and I'll never do that again, either. But, it's awesome to watch those people run. It's such a great environment and place to be.

This is my one and only life and it's a great and terrible and short and endless thing and none of us come out of it alive.

I can remember crying on the set of Beverly Hills 90210 after being released from the show a few years ago

I'm just a girl from a trailer park who had a dream. I never thought this would ever happen.

I like to play women who blaze trails.
