And while I might not always agree with the viewpoint I have to portray, because I play a district attorney, as an actress I can always tell myself that my character is trying to take the moral high ground.

Being Irish was a big thing for me, particularly growing up in Chicago.

I love talking about myself.

I'm the kind of woman who, when she walks into a party, all the other women leave the room.

[Wearing padding to make my breasts look larger for a movie] was great, but it also made me think, you know, a lot of women who go out and get implants, what's so insecure about them that they would rather have someone look there than in their eyes?

I love children and I love men, but I can't commit to either for the rest of my life.

I am a very selfish person.
