I'm trying to show I'm a trained actress - I can transform myself into different characters. I'm not just an ingenue.

The 'ER' role was not Asian-specific, and my agent knew that I loved the show.

I'm as proud to be Chinese as I am American.

You have to start thinking a little differently as an actor.

I'm always like, "Maybe I can drive the car. I can still fly the plane!"

I'm always excited to do the fight scenes.

I was a total sci-fi geek. Star Wars was my ultimate favorite.

Both my parents are chefs I grew up in a restaurant and was always surrounded by cooks. I love food.

What I want is the same opportunities as anyone to get a part.

I love doing TV. It's so great for my world as a mom, as someone who likes to have a steady job and go to work feeling secure because I'm with a family.

I'm sort of a gypsy at heart and don't like to stay in one place too long.

The Science Coalition, which grew out of an initial concept at Harvard and at MIT, has now grown to an informal group of about 60 research universities.

The political spirit is the great force in throwing the love of truth and accurate reasoning into a secondary place.

I've always thought things were absurd. It would take a lot more effort for me to see things as reasonable.

Success is often harder to take than failure.

I think that people will always want music; I think that the form that they will get it in, or distributed to them from, and the price they pay for it is what's up in question.

Same way I have my entire life. Keep my family and friends close. My Latino friends close. I visit the island [Puerto Rico] as often as I humanly can.

I know there are people who believe you should forgive and forget. For the record, I'd like to say I'm a big fan of forgiveness as long as I'm given the opportunity to get even first.

The good chip allows you to whistle while you walk in the dark alleys of golf.
