I'm an utterly average, total geek.

During the 80s and 90s, we all became consumed with ourselves. In the 21st century, we've come back to simpler times. People are struggling economically and this has forced them to scale back the material aspects of their lives and realise the beauty of finding the simple joy in being with the people we love.

In my life I think I made really solid decisions, and I would stand by them all over again.

I just want to make a point that it's not just great teachers that sometimes shape your life. Sometimes it's the absence of great teachers that shapes your life and being ignored can be just as good for a person as being lauded.

Republican comes in the dictionary just after reptile and just above repugnant.

Something that's such a joy in my life every day - cooking - is this incredible, horrific danger to women around the world.

I didn't know the odds were so stacked against me. I went for TV shows and never got them. But I kept glued to the pursuit. I was the biggest fool in town, but ultimately I was the biggest fool in town with a job.
