I'm a big handbag lover and will always have one with me.

I think if you have a good night's sleep, you can take on the world.

Kids hate anyone who is different.

When you're acting, you're escaping and hiding behind something. It's cliched to say, but there's a safety there.

My style is schizophrenic! One minute I'll be wearing bright girly dresses, and the next I'll be swinging towards more structured masculine things.

I'm a real animal lover. I adore animals of all shapes and sizes.

I love dressing up for events; to me it's almost like wearing a costume for the evening.

I have to be careful not to do so many comedy airhead roles from now on. I've turned down a couple already.

When my youngest daughter got married, I designed her wedding dress and I really let my imagination and energy go crazy! All the journalists seemed to love that dress.

One man alone had really known the sciences, namely, Robert, Bishop of Lincoln.

When you're happy for yourself, it fills you. When you're happy for someone else, it pours over.

People don't understand that you can actually lose your life going to jail. There's more violence in the jail-house than there is on the streets.

I just didn't have no edge for baseball. Once special coach Tony Oliva and former Twins coach Al Newman told me what happened, I couldn't function.
