My mother had lived in London since I was little, so she never got to see my school plays and stuff.

I've dated people who I thought were going to be a big deal in my life, and I've also spent long periods by myself.

I think what my hope is is that the only downside of having a steady job on television is, I think for all actors, there's a piece, there's some adrenaline, and part of the love of the job is not knowing what's coming next, and the variety.

Nobody ever seems to want my advice about serious stuff. People will be like: 'Who made that sweater?' Or 'How did you get your hair so straight?' They don't to come to me for the relationship advice or deep stuff. In fact, my little sister actually hides from me.

While I very much wanted to be in a relationship, I didn't want to be in the wrong one.

The thing I don't like on television is when somebody does something that makes absolutely no sense just for the shock of it.

All my references are 50 years old-when somebody shot J.R., you know? Oh my god, I'm 100!
