I'm not a prettier everywoman. I am an everywoman that they clean up awfully well for T.V.

I'd rather not have a moment when I'm known for my looks; being funny and interesting lasts longer.

I get paid to make out with the hunks!

I think children are like pancakes. You sort of ruin the first one, and you get better at it the second time around.

I had a picture-perfect childhood.

I read that book How to Hug a Porcupine [by Julie Ross] - it's my parenting bible. They say you have to trust your children and give them freedom. I say, OK, but this is New York City!

There's no real manual on being a parent. There's no real manual on being a wife. I keep reminding myself, My mother did all this, only she never got to leave the house. OK, I can do this. We're all learning on our own learning curve.
