I've always been a big fan of books.

I always said that, when I grow up, I want to be like Joss Whedon: I want to have my own world.

Life is very short, try everything you've dreamed about (within the perimeters of sanity and the law) and regret nothing. Oh, and don't forget the sunscreen.

I'm kissing Alyson Hannigan and I almost stuck my tongue in her mouth because we just got so into it at one point.

Acting is fantastic, but to be able to create a whole world on celluloid is amazing. It's like taking your dreams straight from your head and projecting them onto a screen.

I'm not a big hijinker. I'm a big sit-in-my-chair-and-read-a-book-er.

There is so much more to this world then outward appearances. Our society basks in the illusion of normalcy every day, and hides from the truth every night.

It was interesting to have humanoid villains that were rooted in our three-dimensional reality... or four dimensional reality, I'm not sure which!

It doesn't matter who you sleep with, it's how you treat other people in this world.

Life is short, and I'd rather be sitting in the poor house doing what I love doing than making a lot of money and being miserable. Life is very short.

If I wasn't an actress I'd want to be a writer or else find a job where I got to read books and watch movies all day, everyday, for the rest of my life.

California was almost entirely a dream, a dream vague but deep in the minds of a westering people.

Do something, get something. Do nothing, get nothing. Doing is the beginning of being. Being is the beginning of achieving. Achieving is the essence of living and living is the spices of life

I think you have to be guarded but not closed off.

I see God every day... For God is in everything I see.

It's you people dying from nothing that are screwed. I got all sorts of neat gadgets waiting for me...oxygen tent, iron lung.

My son is a blessing in every way.

I would love to see more women directors because they represent half of the population and gave birth to the whole world. Without them the rest [of the world] are not getting to know the whole story.

Men willingly believe when they want to.

I want to do a show about a woman who's juggling a career with a relationship.

The thing I loved the most about being art director was picking the photographers and working with them.
