If you're not adventurous, you're not really living, I think... especially in college.

I love pushing my boundaries and seeing how far I can go without, you know, dying or injuring myself too badly.

I want to pay my mortgage and go on vacation, so I love working. I want to be able to do independent projects as well, and being on a successful TV show allows you to do some other things.

I always thought that sororities were just made up of cheerleaders from high school. And I kind of picked on those cheerleaders!

Everyone has their thing, and I was the weird, artsy kid.

There is no greater duty in this world than to serve others with deep compassion and love.

Accept not a mediocre effort but any end result of a super effort

Mary [Tyler Moore] was absolutely brilliant... She is a fabulous actress. She can do anything.

Justin Salinger showed up one day with a pink cowboy hat on and everyone else got really annoyed because somehow he'd managed to get the pink cowboy hat.

I sometimes think I might be autistic because I like to know - I need to know - my beginnings and my ends. I don't have to be in control of it, but I need to know what's going on.

My favorite actresses are Cameron Diaz, Julia Roberts and Julie Andrews.

I was born in 1972, which means that in "rock" terms I have no business addressing "the kids" unless it's to shoo them out of my garden.

I have a noble history of being rejected by a lot of places, only to discover that the one that finally lets me in is in fact the perfect fit.

Critics, like the rest of mankind, are very frequently misled by interest.

Life's something we already understand. Death is a mystery.
