I don't really care if people like a character ornot; I think in life we don't always like everybody. But you haveto be able to understand them.

I think the thing about relationships is that you're always thinking "Oh, it's going to go bad." [...] But then, it's the same thing that all the silly magazines say, "Take time for yourselves. Go away."

I love my kids with all my heart and the last thing I want to worry about is the air they breathe.

The audience doesn't come to see you, they come to see themselves.

Life is full of compromises, and whether or not you're willing to negotiate.

In grade school I was a complete geek. You know, there's always the kid who's too short, the one who wears glasses, the kid who's not athletic. Well, I was all three.

When I started out, the most terrifying thing was when I had to be very, very emotional in front of lots of people. Now I've kind of learned that it is very important to keep talking all day, keep making jokes, and be connected with people, and be present. It's very important for me to be absolutely present in order to be emotional. I learned that is sort of the way I need to be.
