I'm reserved. I'm more of an introvert than an extrovert.

I think each role takes a little from you and circles around you for the rest of your life. I don't think you ever abandon any of them.

You aren't really anybody in America if you're not on TV.

I love acting, but it's much more fun taking the kids to the zoo.

I just have a desire not to judge and view things compassionately.

Somehow destiny comes into play. These children end up with you and you end up with them. It's something quite magical.

Have no regrets. Every relationship leads you to where you're meant to be. Learn to be comfortable with being alone. Learn to be comfortable with saying no to people; we put everybody else before ourselves. Read great literature; don't get all your information from TV. Define your moral code - nobody else is going to give you that. Find it yourself. Keep asking questions, keep challenging. You don't have to conform. Rebellion creates character. And, as my mother always said to me, "Don't let anyone break your spirit!"
