I'm a real 'go, go' person... I'd make myself crazy by pushing too hard. It's important to pull pack the reins a little bit and get in touch with what's inside.

People had been so attached to the Diane [Cheers] character that audiences and producers found it difficult to think of me in any other terms. It took some time before people would consider me for other parts.

I was not a womanizer; I didn't date a lot. If I kissed somebody, I was basically married from that point on.

I dont believe in predestination, even though I was raised a Presbyterian.

I was too terrified to notice she [Shelley Long] had breasts. I do remember that I was eating a sandwich.

I'm not perfect, but I'd like to be perfect. I'm working on it.

I can't say I based [Carla] on anybody I knew. She was so foulmouthed and mean, just said what was on her mind. So I guess Carla is somebody I always wished I could be at the right moment, the one who always has the perfect comeback.
