Courtroom dramas can be boring.

I hope that anyone I worked with wouldn't exploit our relationship.

At school I was always trying to con my teachers into letting me act out book reports instead of writing them.

You know when someone's over-flattering you in a way. You smile but you can't believe it.

I love working closely with people.

When you're dying, you're liberated to do what you want to do. You give yourself permission. I think everyone's experience with a terminal disease is so deeply personal and unique to the person, the context in which they're living and the relationships that they have.

I find that things don't bother me as much. If I had a bad day on set, it sort of just rolls of my back in a way that it didn't before. So that's where the biggest difference is, stuff that used to get under my skin or that I would worry about or be anxious about just isn't a problem. So in some ways, having a child has been very liberating. I found it very liberating.
