For me, once I've worked on something and it's finished, it's like an ex-boyfriend: you don't go back to them.

I just believe that sometimes in life you're like a shark - you have to keep moving through water; otherwise, you'll die.

'Bionic Woman' really enriched my career. It was a big, amazing thing to do.

Working on new projects gives you the opportunity to learn and absorb new things.

I've never been a social bunny. I thrive on work.

I like to hang out with my friends, go to the theatre, watch DVDs, read, play with my niece.

Doing the same thing day in, day out. It's just so boring. I like to jump from different things.

I think it's so important as an actor that you hang on to your own inner compass, because so many people want to guide you - 'This is what you should you be doing'. But I want to do different things.

Sometimes in life, random things can blind-side you.

I was bullied. I was a bit of a geek. Good-looking guys were off-limits. I didn't start dating until I was 18.

Most of my cousins are boys, so I'm used to being around boys.

Despite the voices of the culture that would scream otherwise, victory is irreparably tied to the surrender of self. And that explains why so few are truly victorious.

People think being depressed is just being tired and lazy. It isn't. It's more like being dead when you're still breathing.

Where were you when I undressed and told the tales of my day?Where were youwhenI was silent with God in prandial pray?Where were youwhen I recited love poems as I lay?Where were you?

Something strange started to rage inside me, hearing you inhale sharply as I tried to kiss those scars away or etch them deeper into your skin, wanting to mark you in an entirely different way.

The first show I ever worked on was The Killing, which was a whodunit crime show.

It's psychosomatic. You need a lobotomy. I'll get a saw.

America's future will be determined by the home and the school. The child becomes largely what he is taught; hence we must watch what we teach, and how we live.

I do not think it worth while to wait for enjoyment until there is some real opportunity for it.

It's the responsibility of the survivor to tell the story.
