After Leaving Las Vegas I did assume that things would get a lot easier than they've been. But it's just been a mirror of the way my career's been from the beginning, so for it to have changed would have been strange. My career has never been perfect...
My first job now is as a mother, everything else is secondary. My kids understand that I am an actress, and they are always so surprised to hear my voice on a cartoon character, or see my face on a video box. If it ever gets to be too much though, th...
I admire many actors, though I don't think there's anyone whose career I would want to mirror sort of by the beats. What I'm really looking to do is constantly defy expectations. I'm very curious to see if you can actually have a character actor and ...
I'm glad that I just played baseball, because I'm sure I had a much longer baseball career than I would've had a football career. I did miss football, but I didn't miss some of the injuries from football.

From small beginnings come great things.
There's a pinch of the madman in every great man.

Wherever you find a great man, you will find a great mother or a great wife standing behind him -- or so they used to say. It would be interesting to know how many great women have had great fathers and husbands behind them.

Hope is an act of faith. Great faith, great hope.
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.
Darkest times, great men evolve.
My heartfelt gratitude to my great teachers!
We savour on great memories of happy times.
We can overcome the uncertainties in life with courage and hope.
Divine possibilities; visions, dreams and goals.
