I was a Scientologist before I was an actress, and I've always felt people are not only content with whatever religion I have, but are always interested.

I was so naive I didn't even know about agents. I telephoned the William Morris agency and asked to speak to Mr. Morris. I expected Bill Morris to be waiting for my call.

If we worried half as much what others are doing for us and spent twice as much time helping others, we would all be exponentially happier.

Through history, people look for something spiritual. The greatest scientists in the world were men of religion and faith, too.

When you're the spokeswoman for a weight-loss program, everything is witnessed. I weigh in once a week with a witness. I have to sign an affidavit saying I cannot have any surgeries.

When you are generalizing, and when your goal is to malign and to say things about an entire group - there are tens of millions of Scientologists in the world - when you decide to blanket statement that 'Scientology is evil,' you are my enemy.

I took an acting class for 10 seconds before I played a lead in a student movie. I showed the film to an agent who said he would send me on interviews but wouldn't sign me.
