If I was to listen and pay attention to everyone that criticized me, I'd stay home under the bed.

There's rampant sexism, of course there is! It just goes without saying. Every woman in the workplace knows this; [every woman] in the workplace has to work harder than a man to prove themselves.

A lot of police shootings are justified, but many others are not.

I'd love to branch out but I have absolutely no interest in romance. I just don't. The thought of trying to write a rom-com ... it just completely skeeves me out. No!

I would wipe my tears, and walk out of the stall and the bathroom, and march myself back into that courtroom because the only way that I could deal with Keith's [ Griffin] murder was to feel like I was doing something about it. In retrospect, what did I do? I know that I put a lot of bad guys in jail and if I kept them off the street one day more, that may have been one less crime victim.

I was 47 when I got pregnant. I'd been trying for a couple of years and thought it would never happen.

For the most part, cops are decent and honorable, but that's how I know that there are bad cops, cops that you think you know so well.
