A rock offered by a friend is like an apple.
A friend to everybody and to nobody is the same thing.
Short judgments make long friends.
To see a friend no road is too long.
Over the bottle many a friend is found.
I lived in Meadowbrook. I went to church at Meadowbrook United Methodist Church. I went to school at Meadowbrook Elementary School and then Meadowbrook Middle School. I learned to dance at Meadowbrook Country Club. All those things grounded me in one...
I was horribly shy all through grade school and high school. But somehow I got up the nerve to audition for one play in high school - 'Auntie Mame.' I got a small part as the fiancee who comes on in the end. I got laughs. I wasn't shy at all doing th...
While visiting Costa Rica, I was inspired to hear that someone had donated a playground to a local school. So when I returned to L.A., one day I just called the principal of a nearby elementary school and asked what I could do. Five years later, I've...

I went to art school actually when I was sixteen years old.
I think we should wean Grandma.
If you could draw a picture of the best high school in the world - where all the teachers are wonderful and all the classrooms are beautiful, it would be my high school.
I started acting when I was, like, five in monologue competitions at this private elementary school.
I think that like most girls in high school, I just mirrored what was around me.
I played piano back in my elementary school days and I sang a cappella back in college.
