All I really want to do is someday be in a western. If I could be on a horse with a rifle, I would be a really happy camper.

The focus of our family life was homework and what was for dinner; getting to ballet rehearsal and getting my brother to soccer.

Theresa Rebeck's writing is so scarily funny. I just love how unapologetic she is with her writing: she doesn't try to make her characters likeable or heroic, she just really makes them human. Hopefully, the audience is able to love them in the end - or have whatever feelings that they want to have about all of them - but I love that she doesn't have that agenda. That is something that, as an actress, was really appealing to me; to just get to be in this group of people who are complicated and very human.

Listen, a cable series is a beautiful thing because there's such amazing writing happening on television, and it's a schedule that allows you to do a play or two. There's a reason everybody wants that job!

I will say that I've been lucky enough never to have to do a job I didn't want to do, or a play I wasn't in love with.

So, for the most part, I really like when I read a scene that scares me and makes me sweat a little bit, thinking about doing it. That's usually a good sign to me.
