When they tell me one of my old movies is on TV, I don’t look at it.

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.

When you’re fighting with a stunt person, your intent is to miss.

Maybe because she doesn’t try so hard to seduce and impress, I guess that’s why some guys fell for her. Because she’s so different and crazy and we all like a little bit of that...

I think I’ve paid my dues. I’ve really put in a lot of time on set.

I think it’s because it’s so different and it takes risks. Plus, it’s really smart humor. It gives the audience credit in terms of not needing to tell them when to laugh. I love that...

If you have made mistakes, there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down, but the...

Most women don’t play like guys do: they don’t wrestle, fight, get into brawls. They don’t know how to express themselves in a physical, active way.

So the first season about halfway through he just sort of put us together and then broke us up all within one episode. One of the ideas is to have us do that once a...

All this happens without him knowing – they actually install cameras in his apartment and hire this girl to get him to fall in love with her so that she can be in the apartment...

I approach my character with the question: What would an animal think? How would an animal respond? A lot of times, it’s quick action and no fear, and sometimes it’s irrational fear. You don’t always...

Women can’t be afraid to look like action heroes. It’s not always pretty, but when it’s on the screen, it translates well to the audience.

Sometimes, when you have someone behind the counter who’s supposed to assist you and help you out, just being completely bored and uninterested – sometimes it’s a little bit frustrating, you know?

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.

I think that as is true in this industry, everything gets blown out of proportion because it’s more fun for people to read about. It’s even more fun to read about if the stories get...

It would have been more logical if silent pictures had grown out of the talkies instead of the other way around.

My first paying job, when I was 15, I was a day camp counselor.

The first time I lived in L.A. I was too young. I really wanted to be back home in Vancouver.

At least, I’m very happy that it’s going out on DVD because if it wasn’t for the fans who signed this petition and were really ongoing about how they loved it, we wouldn’t see this...

I came to acting in a very circuitous way.

You show your vulnerability through relationships, and those feelings are your soft spot. You need to have a soft spot.

Talking back and being quite aggressive about stuff and not giving a care in the world about anyone. So it was more, I think, that way and I think that’s what happened in that party...

I’ve been really fortunate to go from series to series to series.

I was 17 and the whole thing was very confusing at the time. It was a great job and I loved it, and to lose the role was definitely tough for me. I was devastated...

I was forced to live far beyond my years when just a child, now I have reversed the order and I intend to remain young indefinitely.

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,...

Walking into a show when I was 16, at that time when it was the No. 1 hit show, and replacing a character comes with so many expectations. I felt a lot of pressure with...

I just love the storyline, I thought it was hilarious – I loved that part when we opened the door, we all look ahead and we have to look down and see that we’re actually...

I can’t say that I’ve made the transition to movies.

I think that we had a really loyal, great audience on Tuesdays and we were hoping that with the move, they would come with us. It looks like they have, so things are good and...

That’s great because I know as a teenager, I didn’t relate to a TV series where all people do is cheerlead and drink sodas on the weekend. So I think it’ll be great if it...

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...

I would be sad if it ended now. It’s been the best job I’ve had by a long shot, especially creatively because the writing is so good. Every week I get the script and I...

Make them laugh, make them cry, and hack to laughter. What do people go to the theatre for? An emotional exercise. I am a servant of the people. I have never forgotten that.

That’s the thing with sci-fi and action roles. You have to play the danger as real. If you don’t, you end up with egg on your face. You have to commit. You can’t think about...

We have such a good time working together. It makes such a difference going to work every day for 14 hours and being able to hang out and have a good time.

I remember the guest stars who came, they were always trying to find a new plot for their characters because they wanted to stay. It was really a great working environment.

I competed in track for 10 years and have been doing kickboxing forever.

But I was working with such a great group of people. I just felt so safe up there on stage with them. But the first night I was definitely nervous.

The little boy, Spencer Breslin, it was just so great to have a kid on set. He is talented, he’s a pro. He’s been doing this for years, I think he started when he was...

If you watch the show and the characters don’t look at each other while they’re talking, the actors probably aren’t getting along.

I would like to think that I’m more different from my character than I am.

I don’t know, I like to go on really different types of dates. Going someplace new or some new part of the city, something that’s not your average thing. Something where you just go have...

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.

Well, we film it on the site of what used to be a real hospital for 30 years. So many people continue to think it’s still functional.

I was so busy during those seven months that sometimes I didn’t have that much time to watch what others were doing and they were all so great.

I desperately want a dog, but I’ve been told I travel too much, and I’m not allowed to have a dog.

But to be part of helping create a character and be a part of something from the beginning – the excitement of it – it doesn’t get any better.

These two girls start wanting the same thing because in this neighborhood, they know all the guys so well. It’s a small town and all the guys are just really boring to them.

In terms of being a role model, I didn’t start out to be one. I don’t go to work every day with that in mind. But, I do get a lot of fan mail from...
