To Brian Ellis, you owe my family and this community and apology for a disgusting and despicable smear campaign.

I follow a set of principles; I follow the Constitution. And that's what I base my votes on. Limited government, economic freedom, and individual liberty.

As a legislator, I saw how effective I could be by being transparent, posting and explaining all of my votes.

It's one of the things I love about making films: the places I've got to travel that I would never have gone to before.

We are the zanies of sorrow. We are clowns whose hearts are broken.

If I wasn't an actress I would run a fortune 500 company.

Last night I dreamt I ate a ten pound marshmallow. When I woke up the pillow was gone.

But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve For daws to peck at: I am not what I am.
