If I can play a little part in the world's healing, and making it a better place than when I came, then I just thank God for that chance.

I definitely have my days where I look like I got dressed in the dark.

I say to everybody, 'Adoption is not for the faint of heart.'

If I can play a little part in the world's healing, and making it a better place than when I came, then I just thank God for that chance.

I think people were expecting me to be that kind of glamorous sexpot. So they were always, Wow you're not what I expected.

As an actress, there were so many months, years even, when I didn't get work, when I wanted to quit.

These days we don’t have to fit into something other people think we are. We’ve leveled the playing field, life is inclusive. I’m a mom, sex detective, wife, fearless, gentle — we can now, with grace, be all of what we are.
