I was class mom at the preschool one year and I was pretty much asked not to do that again!Collection: Mom
I'm on a strict gossip diet. No gossip websites, no gossip magazines. Otherwise, I find it paralyzing to exist.Collection: Diet
I've had a little bad, bad media luck the new year. Well, apparently I'm dating Bill Clinton, which makes me nervous. I didn't know, though.Collection: Dating
It's a war of attrition. If you have patience and a modicum of faith in yourself your chances are not too bad.Collection: Faith
I would like to say that I am a very relaxed, loving person who is not competitive, but that's a lie!
I had many decades of me time and now I just don't have that anymore. There are days when I rail against it.
I met Clinton at a benefit for teachers, which was a very good charity, but I met him for about 90 seconds, and I thought it was important to meet the leader of the free world. So I stood next to him for a photograph, and then apparently that's all it takes.
I haven't really had that many opportunities to play 'lead' so I guess I jumped at the chance. I have also never done any 'sci-fi' projects and thought it might be fun.
I guess I'm not that aware of such a big fan base. I have a few core people who write me no matter what I'm doing, but I hardly have sacks of mail being dropped on my door!
I play a scientist in a futuristic world in which 99% of the men have been wiped out. As a result, the women are nearly all homosexuals and the children are cloned.
My parents had an old-fashioned ideal of college, that four years at a liberal arts college should be a liberal arts education.
I do find it odd people choose to do stuff that makes them look like crazy Hollywood faces, but I've got zero judgment.
There's an expression: Great is the enemy of the good. Sometimes in trying to be great, you make a mess of things.
I would love to do more movies, but the reality is women have many more opportunities on television to play a greater variety of characters.
I read books more than I go out. As a matter of fact, I get a little concerned about some of my anti-social habits. I will choose a night with Somerset Maugham or Russell Banks over a crowded bar any day.
Television is where the best work for women is right now. I would love to do more movies, but the reality is women have many more opportunities on television to play a greater variety of characters.
I'm built like a 14-year-old boy. I have no waist, so anything I wear has to have a lot of trickeration going on. I don't fit into girl dresses. I can't just slip it on.
I consider a day without running a crappy day. When I don't get to run, I am a grump, but some days my schedule just doesn't allow me to.

I read some article where Reese Witherspoon said, "If you're not yelling at your kids, you're not spending enough time with them." It made me feel so much better.Collection: Kids
We've had four or five casts in three years. There was a point when I thought the Department of Children and Family Services was going to show up at my door!Collection: Children
