I wasn't a very good waitress, always spilling things on people and forgetting things. I once spilled ashes all over Mike Wallace's table.

Everybody has their challenges; I couldnt say that we have more challenges than other people, theyre just different.

James Patterson has a way with female characters. He understands women in a way that a lot of male writers don't.

It's not that I'm necessarily looking for things that are so dark and emotional. But if I see something where the character goes through enormous change, it's very appealing to play all those levels, and that is probably going to involve some dark moments.

When something's got to give, family always wins. I couldn't live with myself if it was the other way.

I'm very grounded - that's how I would put it. If you met my mother, you'd probably say the same thing about her. I had a very sane upbringing, though some very insane things happened.
