I love my friends. They're my family.

A lot of times, when you start a show at a young age, you get stuck. You get six years of high school, but I didn't have that.

Being outspoken has always gotten me into trouble. I'm just this little thing and then all of a sudden it comes out.

You need to keep your creative juices flowing and keep [your] character interesting.

I think that's what growing up is all about. It's about taking on new responsibilities and learning what you can handle, and learning what you can't.

I started to watch Damages and all of these amazing, female-driven shows, and it was something that was always in the back of my mind. Then, once I had my daughter, I realized that I was done living the romantic lifestyle, and nothing offers that more than television.

I would tell any actress that the trick is to play all the female characters on your show, and then all the men are yours.
