I hadn't heard the Gary Cooper thing so I'm not grounded now. I feel pretty good. That's incredibly nice. When I met Robin [Williams] at the read-through, I remember when he came in, I was so nervous meeting him for the first time is incredible because I did actually write him a letter when I was a kid and told him he was my favorite actor.

Truly, when I say the show has given me everything, it's given me everything.

It's not about celebrity or not. It's all about, do you have that 'girl in a cardigan' in you. You gotta have that.

I've always loved where my dad came from and the ideals that instilled in me.

I didn't go to the special screening on a spaceship where everybody goes to have their special screenings...Everybody knows that's what happens in Hollywood.

My family's the best so to call and say, 'I'm in a movie with Robin Williams,' and they're like, 'That's ridiculous.' And I'm like, 'Good, as long as you think that, too.' Because as soon as you say, 'I deserve this,' it's over."

I'm not going to pretend that bad things don't happen. I just hope my daughter has enough understanding that when they do, just give me a call.
