That's what I love about acting, you get to find little pieces of yourself in every character you play.

It's one thing in this business to actually work. 5 percent of the Screen Actors' Guild works. It's another thing to do work that's satisfying and that people are loving.

I am such a scaredy-cat.

What I love about what I've been given - and luck has a lot to do with it - is that if you follow your heart you'll wind up doing exactly what you want to do. I was fortunate enough to have enough of a foundation with people behind me to do what was in my heart. And it's all worked out.

The reason I met my husband was because I remembered a friend's birthday. The moral of the story is: Remember people's birthdays.

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

I think the whole world should try not talking for a day.
