If you're offered something, you're not really sure exactly what is that they saw in you that they think is the character so it's a little scary, I feel.

When I first started I was always known as The Girl on the Sitcom with the Funny Voice.

Darla [from Buffy The Vampire Slayer] was where I grew up. For me, Darla was like going to graduate school for acting. I learned so much with Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt. They encouraged us to make creative choices with our characters.

The meaning of life... I think the meaning of life is, I think it's love.

I didn't really know who [Dario Argento] was at the time. I know him now, obviously. But I went in to be an extra on the movie [Two Evil Eyes], and he saw me sitting out waiting to meet the casting director, and he pulled my mother and I into a separate conference room.

[Filming Payne] that was also the first time I worked with JoBeth Williams, which was also a case of not being the last time!

I love being challenged physically, as an actress.
