When I got 'Lost,' I was about to not be able to live, so it was a fall-to-the-knees, burst-into-tears, 'I'm saved by this great role' moment.

I'm not Irish. Just because I have red hair doesn't mean I'm a lucky charm, you know?

My first car was in 2006 when I got on my first TV show - a BMW 328i2 four-door sedan in slate grey. That was a great day, that was.

All I do is watch TV and films, and when I'm not doing that, I'm making them. I need a hobby!

You know I hate watching myself on TV, I know a lot of actors say that, but it's true for me.

It's a blessing to be paid to be in paradise. The Hawaiian people are so friendly.

I'm quadracontinental. I've got a life in London, New York, L.A. and Hawaii.

I'm incredibly cheesy. I'm all about happy endings and all of that.

I do accents. Sometimes when I've had a few drinks, I speak in different accents all night long, and then at the end of an evening someone will say to me, 'Seriously, where are you from?'

I never did any sports at school. It wasn't until I moved to America, to New York, when I was about 20 that I actually thought that if I wanted to be an actress I might have to start working out.

Actors who say they don't watch TV are stupid. I was raised by TV! And it's how I research for auditions.

You would not want to be responsible for someone else’s happiness, so please do not hold someone else responsible for yours!

Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible.

I can't believe that God put us on this earth to be ordinary.

I never believed that Nixon could fully resurrect himself. And the proof of that was in the obits.

She had gained a reputation for beauty, and (which is often another thing) was beautiful.

literature is the last banquet between minds.

The poverty of our imagination is no measure of say the world's resources. Our posterity will no doubt get fuel in ways that we are unable to devise for them.

Some filmmakers go into a film and it's already shot and cut in their head.

If I have chocolate around, I will eat it. I love it, I love it, I love it. I like a piece every day.

Anything can happen in the blink of an eye. Anything at all. One. Two. Three. Blink.
