I play- it's kind of like a slice-of-life, LA women in their forties, playing forty kind of what's their friendship like, and what's their life like and so I just play one of the four friends.

I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven.

Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.

The fact of the matter is, if you have to have a process, I think, to figure out how to make everything work together, you just don't get that. But maybe there's a way to do it.

As a woman, you listen to more female singers, like guys listen to more rock bands. So in that way, they influence you because you're trying to create an identity; you look to others to model.

A lot of women get out of the business because it's so not family-friendly. And so women that could be in there making good women-roles don't do it, 'cause they're smart and get out.

In L.A., it's easy to get caught up in what you look like or how much money you have, and those aren't values I want my kids to adopt.

You know, I loved math. My mom was a math teacher.

A relationship is hard in and of itself. And having kids is really hard work, but I think it's really meaningful, as is a relationship. But they all take work.

It was fun; you know, at this point in my life it's like, I want to do stuff that's meaningful.

Maybe I'm more drawn to those kind of parts because they are meaningful to me. I mean, more parent-y ones, I find them interesting to do.

I think America has a bad rap right now and hopefully Obama will change that.

I mean that I think I find the psychology of people more interesting than politics. I think the psychology of politics is more interesting than straight politics.

You're curious about someone, or why they're doing what they're doing. Because everyone who gets to work in this field is so lucky, and it's such a rarified world, I understand that. At the end of the day, I'm interested in demystifying it.

It's incredibly, incredibly difficult to get a movie made.

Skating is big in Chicago. There's a lot of hockey; a lot of the boys play hockey. And figure skating is big.

I think acting has helped me come out of my shell because when I play a character, I can't be self-conscious.

I think there's a million talented people out there, it's just a matter of luck a lot of the time.
