How many times, in any actor's life, do you get to be a part of something that has a legacy like [Buffy]? I think that's only fortunate. I don't see the negative.

I'm not a things person. I'm not attached to my things.

When picking a show, I took into consideration who my fans are. Let's be honest, Buffy was a mid-season replacement on The WB, based on a failed movie. If it wasn't for the outpouring of fans and critics supporting us, we would have been canceled after four episodes. Sure, you want to stretch and you want to do different things, but it's also our job to think about who our fans are and what they want to see. Ultimately, that's why we do.

I believe in myself, and I've always had people behind me who believed in me. With that, you can do anything.

You're forced to think about what your goals are and you clarify them because you're taking this journey with another person and you need to be open with your partner.

I don't do a television show for awards. You make it so people will enjoy watching it.

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.
