Cancer affects everyone, and it’s up to all of us to support the important research that can one day make a much sought-after cure a reality.
All mothers go through the exact same things.
Here’s kind of my motto – if you’re not happy at home, you’re not happy anywhere else.
I’m the kind of person who wants the people around me to be comfortable, to laugh, and to have a fabulous time – I want them to be as happy as I am.
When I feel like I’m not doing what I am supposed to as a mother, I will torture myself. I don’t know how to deal with it. I find some consolation in the fact that all mommies feel it. If there was a way to cure mommy guilt, I would bottle it and be a bazillionaire.
I want my girls to be strong and self-sufficient.
I’m just confused as to where we lost that in America because it is everyone’s God-given right to think the way they think and that’s fine. That’s why our ancestors came here to America, to believe what they want, pray how they want and follow a religion with whoever they want.
As an actor all we want to do is act and play people.
I’m super organized, but a horrible house cleaner.
I was not the most attractive child. I had two really big buck teeth. I was horrendous – long, lanky and gangly.
You don’t often get what you ask for, and I got exactly that. I got a show that was on cable, that I could shoot five months a year and go be mommy the rest of the time, and be with a cast and crew that I really, really love, adore and respect. I got all of that.
We’re all women. We all have the same wonderful situations happen to us, the same horrific situations. We all get our hearts broken.
I think one of the greatest things about the Republican Party is the understanding, we don’t point fingers and we have class...
I might not understand everything a Democrat or liberal thinks but hey let’s be honest, I don’t understand some of the things the Republicans think, but that doesn’t make me some dumb hick that doesn’t have the right to live here.
I’ve got three daughters and I’m going to stand up for them and support them in whatever they want to do.
I keep waiting, like in the cartoons, for an anvil to drop on my head.
I learned a long time ago that it doesn’t make me less of a woman because my babies come out of a different place. My C-sections have been fine.
Also, there’s the caliber of actors that we keep getting. Lorraine Bracco plays my mom and Chazz Palminteri plays my father, and Brian Dennehy and Donnie Wahlberg have been on the show. And, we’ve got Billy Burke from Twilight. We’ve gotten all kinds of fantastic actors. That speaks for itself.
People are going to move in and out of their office, and they’re going to move up or get fired. All kinds of things happen like that, in real life. And, we’re always going to have crime, unfortunately. If we didn’t, then I wouldn’t have a new show.
I like things to be really, really funny, or really, really dramatic. Those books are certainly the ones that grab me. I like the exercise of reading through a paragraph, and it’s just torture. I try not to have my eyes dart to the right. That’s the stuff that I love.
I totally understand the promotional aspect of our show and the business end of it. We’re putting something out there that we’re really proud of. It’s not like we’re saying, “Hey, come watch our show,” because it sucks.
