I had cars, houses, jewels, furs, and a husband who loved me, and a career I was happy with. But I found fulfillment in my relationship with Christ.
The relationship between reader and characters is very difficult. It is even more peculiar than the relationship between the writer and his characters.
I have a love/hate relationship with just about everything, but certainly with America.
The end of anything is not fun because there's a nostalgia to it and everything else. Even the end of a bad relationship can feel so, so, so sad.
A relationship is hard in and of itself. And having kids is really hard work, but I think it's really meaningful, as is a relationship. But they all take work.
There's nothing worse than walking around and talking about your failed relationship, all day, every day, for months on end.
I don't think that anyone should be in control of a relationship. I think that if you have a woman that controls her man, he is a puppet, and he is weak.
Film's hard when you don't have any relationship with the director at all and you just show up. Then you really are just a gun for hire.
My husband and I are either going to buy a dog or have a child. We can't decide whether to ruin our carpet or ruin our lives.
We all think that this relationship thing is a game out here. All I'm saying to women is, 'Okay. If it's a game, here are the rules that we play by.'
I think we're all fascinated and a little mystified by how the brain works. One of the most mysterious of the physical sciences is neurological science.
In science, read by preference the newest works. In literature, read the oldest. The classics are always modern.
But the imposition of morality onto science, - where it does not belong - has become rampant in recent years.
Science is wonderfully equipped to answer the question 'How?' but it gets terribly confused when you ask the question 'Why?'
My parents divorced when I was born, and my mother is a political science professor, like a feminist Mormon, which is sort of an oxymoron.
There are relatively few science fiction or fantasy books with the main character being an old person.
I had never seen much of Star Trek, or any other science fiction, before I was cast. But Seven's wonderful.
I was a bit of an introvert growing up, and I tended to do better in math and science at school, so I went with it.
I cannot stress often enough that what science is all about is not proving things to be true but proving them to be false.
There is real confusion about what it means to be right and wrong - the difference between what spiritual beliefs are and what science is.
My character, Taylor McKessie, is a little bit brighter in the math and science department than I am... okay, a lot.
