Coming from Chicago, I like a white Christmas.

In a perfect world, you would be able to hold onto everyone. But It's not realistic. The changes with NYPD have been progressive and have taken the show to new levels.

I was so emotional. Choked up. I could hardly talk all day. I'll be cleaning out my trailer and saying goodbye soon, realizing what a wonderful experience this has been.

I'll miss the comments from the people on the street who love the show and who have felt its impact on the culture. I won't miss the shooting schedule, though!

I always liked the smell of a smoke-filled room. I think it's a good smell.

One of the things I had a hard time getting used to when I came to California in '78 was Santa Claus in shorts.

I hate French poetry. What measured glitter!

To me, a politician's job is to listen to constituents' problems and try to sort them out.

I had to trick people into giving me money for my first film. Making a romantic comedy is easier and more expected from a woman than it is to make a drama about a Japanese warrior.

The gateways to wisdom and knowledge are always open.

Character formation cannot be taught. It comes from experience and not from explanation.

We do not exist for ourselves.
