I was in the original cast of Wicked, and that got a bad review in The New York Times, and it’s the most successful thing that’s ever been put onstage.

If you are opening a play, a play that's really about something, a play that's really about ideas, you have to find a way to sell that play.

It's thrilling to be onstage and to not know, literally, what the next moment is going to bring. To just submit to the not-knowing-ness of it.

In the play we have the messy he-loves-her, she-loves-him, she-loves-him-too structure, and, to add even more confusion to the mix, the real love story is between the two ladies.

I hate sitting around a table and talking about what a play might mean. I'm the person who's always like, 'Can we get up on our feet and just do it?

I have 10 brothers and sisters.

I make decisions quickly.

If you individualize an audience, it helps up the stakes of your responsibility to that audience.

Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results.

But actually, I'm planning on moving to New York this year and I can tell you one reason why I think New York is incredible: I think things happen to you that you don't expect have happen to you.

The most indispensable qualification of a cook is punctuality. The same must be said of guests.

Make it a crime to harm a fetus during another crime.

A light-heel'd mother makes a heavy-heel'd daughter.

Living in a chronic state of unawareness can cause us to miss much of what is most beautiful and meaningful in our lives.

When you open your mouth to speak, you reveal a great deal. The words you use and the way you speak are like a blueprint of who you are deep inside.
