I happen to like debating, and I like to debate like a lawyer, and I can argue any points to death, and I will.

I actually like being alone. I spend most evenings reading and taking long baths.

You want to be a writer? A writer is someone who writes every day, so start writing. You don't have a job? Get one. Any job. Don't sit at home waiting for the magical opportunity. Who are you? Prince William? No. Get a job. Go to work. Do something until you can do something else.

Most of the women I saw on TV didn't seem like people I actually knew. They felt like ideas of what women are.

Mother is not a title. Mother is a verb. It is not who you are. It's what you do.

Ive learned this is a very long marriage doing a television show. I like the people that I work with to be people I enjoy, so you want to cast people who are as excited and enthusiastic as you are.

I think it's sad, and weird, and strange that [race in casting] is still a thing. It's 2013. Somebody else needs to get their act together.
