I feel like my brain is more geared towards a novel than it is to a movie.

I was a very difficult child, and the time I spent reading was about the only peace I gave my mother.

I have to say, sushi freaks me out more than almost anything.

As a mother, you feel much more vulnerable. And when you're vulnerable, you're a much better actress.

I'm attracted to playing things that I find difficult, just because it's a journey that is much more interesting.

I don't really watch all that much television, I have to say, because I'm so intimidated by how many channels there are. I really cannot find my way back to anything. But I'm compulsively addicted to '24.' I love that show.

Job-wise I did have a moment of panic that I should have been a doctor a few years ago but I hate when people vomit.
