My mother was the dearest, sweetest angel. She didn’t talk; she sang. She was a tower of strength.

I’m not going to change the world overnight. It’s one person at a time, and hopefully they’re people in positions of power who can help people get in those roles and really, truly embrace colorblind...

I’m not real impressed with the Star Trek weaponry, I gotta be honest.

We did talk about cheese on our first date.

I ask myself: Would I have been any worse off if I had stayed home or lived on a farm instead of shock treatments and medication?

Some women feel the best cure for a broken heart is a new beau.

Money to me is just the biggest blessing in the world that allows me freedom.

Dinah had all the class.

People come up to me as I leave the stage after a performance and tell me tey saw my mother onstage with me every time I sing. I keep a sense of humor about it.

Well, they had to have me in the G-string because this is PG-13, right?

I get about 25 letters a month, and I answer every one of them.

Great writing is great writing. It’s as simple as all that.

I am so like Donna it’s funny. And most of my friends are guys too.

Some of the newer folks in the industry, I’m not sure they are familiar with the term acting. They don’t understand what it means to play a character rather than just be a personality.

I can be inappropriate at times.

I can’t say I can foresee the future and tell the stars, you know. But I do have an understanding for my own reality, just elements and things that I’ve learned from.

The one thing that you simply have to remember all the time that you are there, is that Hollywood is an oriental city. As long as you do that you might survive. If you try...

It was not a healthy marriage for long time. It was never about another man, it was about what my and Dennis’s relationship could not sustain.

I limited myself to introduce a change in my way of thinking and the way I see things. When I look at my child, I do it in a different way then when I’m contemplating...

While it is challenging working with a kid, because they’re so of the moment all the time. My acting style is to try to take something from my life that the character can relate to...

We were the highest rated TV movie of the year. The highest of all three networks, I think. Who woulda thunk it? Two old broads.

I lived somebody else’s life. It was never about me, it was really about him on every level.

I’m not into older guys. To tell you the truth, Richard Gere is not the sexiest man alive, in my book.

I don’t remember my mother ever playing with me. And she was a perfectly good mother. But she had to do the laundry and clean the house and do the grocery shopping.

Yes, romance has found it’s way into my heart in the past.

I don’t see it as a form of healing, because if you have wounds that are bleeding I don’t think acting will ever get them to stop. But I find acting is a form of...

Luckily, I’m doing other things besides just modeling, because frankly, I’m a little bored with it.

My agent said, ‘You aren’t good enough for movies.’ I said, ‘You’re fired.’

I am more of a New Yorker than ever and just actually, sometimes I fantasize about living somewhere else, where it’s maybe not quite so crowded or stressful, blah, blah, blah and after September 11th,...

I believe it is an important project, it makes the cost of doing business lower and they will make us more competitive at the same time, it will also provide some satisfaction to the people...

If I could be granted a wish, I’d shine in your eye like a jewel.

Comedy is ugly. It’s honest, it’s raw.

When I got nominated for Diary of a Mad Housewife, I didn’t think, Aah, now I’ll get more money.

I haven’t really focused so much on getting acting work.

They just expected it to you know… Paul, Steve and I could have hired our own publicist, if we wanted to, but I kind of liked the way it was more of a cult thing...

I didn’t care about being the ‘star.’ I just wanted to make a living and have a consistent career.

If you think about it now, it’s kind of ridiculous. All these hot girls on Baywatch in tiny little red bathing suits running around saving lives.

I’m off to race around the world-a race against time and two men. I know I can beat time. I hope I can beat the men.

We cannot really communicate with our fans.

I stopped going to school in the middle of fourth grade. Everyone grows up with the peer pressure, and kids being mean to each other in school. I think that’s such a horrible thing, but...

I like writing better. Because I don’t have to wear makeup, I don’t have to be thin, and I don’t have to remember lines.

When I told my mother that I wanted to be an actress, she said, you can’t live here and do that, and so I moved out. I was determined to prove her wrong because she...

For the purposes of the play, it was perfect to be able to use that and the stresses and strains that there were. At the end of the play, the mother realizes the terrible things...

I have never been with a man who has performed any kind of good cunnilingus. Guys always act really bored. It’s like they’re… doing you a favor.

Nobody gets anything for nothing.

Young people are more intelligent and sophisticated.

And I’m hoping that over the next 20, 50 years, whatever, the mystique of television and film and all that will diminish somewhat, and people will leave us alone to get on with our jobs.

Telling lies and showing off to get attention are mistakes I made that I don’t want my kids to make.

My husband is someone who’s in the real world. It’s a big help that I don’t have both feet in Hollywood.

It’s more fun if you can control things like lighting and make special effects in the darkroom.
