I knew an actor's career goes up and down and back up again. Your standing in this business can't be your whole identity; otherwise, you're doomed

You can't pursue something and be committed to it if you're apologizing for it at every party.

My hair got lighter, and I gradually went blonde. I liked it. Had more fun. But my image of myself in my head is this dark-haired person.

I'd played dumbasses a lot. On Mad About You, I played a very dumb waitress and they saw me.

Since I had the baby I can't tolerate anything violent or sad, I saw the Matrix and I had my eyes closed through a lot of it, though I didn't need to. I would peek, and then think, oh OK, I can see that

You can't help but just be aware that things might not always be as good as they are, because people's feelings about others can turn on a dime.
