Every once in awhile, a girl has to indulge herself.

It's not that I'm using my life to put on screen or in my acting, it's that, when you're living in the world, you're exposed to stories, to people, to things that feel foreign and unfamiliar. And I'm curious about those things, me personally.

The firsts go away - first love, first kiss, first baby. You have to create new ones.

I took a page from the playwright Wendy Wasserstein's book. She said 'I'm not a feminist, I'm a humanist.'

I don't believe in email. I'm an old-fashioned girl. I prefer calling and hanging up.

You can't live in New York City and be the most important person in town; you just can't. There are too many other important people here.

I eat everything. I'm just an eater. If it's free, I honestly eat everything.

After all, computers crash, people die, relationships fall apart. The best we can do is breath and reboot.

People always assume that I'm some sort of party girl, and that's such a misconception because I like staying home.
-
It's a tricky time because people are going after the wrong people, too. There's a misplaced rage and aggression, that as a person in a public position you almost feel like you have to be perfect now when you express yourself. It feels almost unfortunate.

He's the funniest, smartest person I know. It doesn't mean he doesn't bug me and I'm sure I bug him sometimes.

I'm very, very concerned about the Bush presidency. I'm worried about the kinds of cuts in domestic programs that mean something to a lot of people, including members of my family, who depend on certain things from the government.

James Wilkie is so conscious of the time we spend together. I try to be home to tuck him in at least four nights a week, and if I'm not, he's not letting me get away with anything. The other night I was sitting with him on the steps before Matthew and I went out to the theater, and he looked at me and said, `Mama, this has got to stop. Go upstairs and take that dress off.'

I knocked part of my tooth out with a scrubbing brush on stage whilst singing 'Hard Knock Life' in Annie.

I still like getting dressed up and having the opportunity to borrow beautiful dresses, but as a mother - and as somebody who's schedule isn't always my own - I don't shop a lot, or think about clothes a lot.

I'm thinking balls are to men, what purses are to women. It's just a little bag but we'd feel naked in public without it.

I spent more time playing a person I was not than the person I am.
-
I've worn so many things, I've tried on so many things...I've spent probably thousand of hours in fittings. I can know so quickly how something's going to feel on me, look on me. It's a pretty fast courtship. I say yes or no pretty quickly.
