The only thing I can't do is hear. I can drive, I have a life with four kids, I work on TV, I do movies, so the deafness question, is it that they want to know because, what? Not sure.

When it comes down to it, it's about who you know, and who's a fan. It's about whether you're the right age, whether you're hot or not, whether the studio is into you or not.

Everybody's got a job to do, and I do mine as best I can.

Silence is the last thing the world will ever hear from me.

I'm not really deaf; I just faked it to win the Oscar KIDDING.

I got a good handshake. A lot of executives tell me I have the best handshake in Hollywood.

At some point we have to stop and say, There's Marlee, not, There's the deaf actress.
