Woo-hoo! I'm 40. I can say that now.

If there's cheesecake in the house, I'll have some.

I'd rather not have a moment when I'm known for my looks; being funny and interesting lasts longer.

I think children are like pancakes. You sort of ruin the first one, and you get better at it the second time around.

I don't have the best family history heart-wise, so I really try to keep my heart strong.

It makes my makeup artist's life easier. [Plus] it makes my eyes look a little more open on TV, which is where I happen to work right now.

If I win, it's because of my natural ability and if I lose, it's because I wasn't trying so hard.

My job affords me the luxury of having help. I don't feel exhausted, I feel lucky.

I try to make my heart beat out of my chest, hard-core, once a day for at least a half hour. I think that's very important.

I always remind my kids, "I'm your parent, but I'm a human being, too, so I may not be perfect."

I had a picture-perfect childhood. My parents were like June and Ward Cleaver; there was nothing dysfunctional about them.

Let all thy joys be as the month of May.

Postmodern comedy doesn't work well with very old audiences, because it's making fun of the comedy they enjoy.

In a few breaths' time I will speak some sad words to you. But you must hear them the same way we have agreed to see scars now. Sad words are just another beauty.

Don't rush or force the ending. All you have to know is the next scene, or the next few scenes.

The wise man thinks of fame just enough to avoid being despised.

Thought is just an apprehension of touch.

We should all be obliged to appear before a board every five years and justify our existence... on pain of liquidation.

The past is ignorant of the present. Be careful in taking its advice.

My mission is healing, pure and simple.

I will ride my luck on occasion, but I like to pick the occasion.
