I think people are just shocked to see me walking around. It's weird. When they see you on TV, they don't expect to see you in a store.

Acting isn't the be-all end-all. There are a lot of other things in my life that will bring me joy if I didn't act anymore.

People get on a show and they fought tooth and nail. Almost 95% of the actors out there want to be on a television series. Then as soon as they get onto one, no, no, I want to be a movie star. This television series stuff, no, no no.

The most important thing is to just be good at what you do. You do a good job playing the character, and people will be taken up with your character, not your clothes.

There are a lot of great actresses out there. You learn to appreciate each one for what they offer.

I've been working some really long hours for the last five or six years. Anybody who works on series television knows, and especially women because women spend probably two hours more than the guys with all their hair and makeup crap.

It's all about exploring the more unpredictable aspects in the character, not just fighting people.
