The hardest thing about being an actor, and especially when you're a woman trying to also have a family and a relationship, is to maintain some sort of normalcy. With television, you might not be home a lot, but you have a routine.

I think that power comes in numbers, and we're in an industry where the actors need to have a bigger voice.

I was never much of a kid person. I mean, I thought they were cute to look at, but I didn't want them in my house.

I love making money, but you can't live your life waiting to get rich in a job that no longer feeds you artistically.

What a wonderful time for women on television.

I'm always shocked when actors have diva-esque behavior.

I would have gone to law school, or gotten a psychology degree. I wasn't interested in sleeping on a futon forever. And what happened is I walked into auditions, and I had nothing to lose, because I had a backup plan.
