I just want the opportunity to continue to do great films, play great characters and work with great people. Show less «

I can cry at the drop of the pin. But comedy is hard for me; it's the timing.

Nudity... I have to say I will never do it again.

I just wanted to be married and to be happy ever after.

But what I like to sing mostly is blues and cabaret style.

You know, I like playing around with my voice and trying all different types of kooky voices.

I truly believe that God brought this, Dorothy Day script to me, because for a long time up until I was in eight grade - I wanted to be a nun. Show less «

I don't even own a television. I'm proud of that.

Money's not important to me. Movie star acknowledgement is not important to me. I don't want to be a big studio actress. I don't want to be in the limelight. Show less «

A few months after graduation I was working in films. It took off pretty quick.

Hollywood is a world all its own.

I've been told before, and I tend to believe it, I'm not like most actresses out there.

I used to babysit a lot, and I used to be a nanny.

My dream is to eventually open a children's theatre.

I went to Marymount College in New York City with a lot of kids whose parents paid their way, and I wouldn't even have thought of asking my parents - they couldn't afford it, not with six kids! Show less «

I get a lot of recognition for my voice. That always surprises me.

An audience is going to be able to find a little bit of Dorothy in themselves and relate to this woman. Roles like Dorothy Day are so rare in Hollywood. Show less «

I find nothing wrong with the naked body.

I do have the freedom to choose what I want to do and I'll continue to do that.

Children are so creative and imaginative that they just bring you to life all over again.

I'd love to have the opportunity to sing in a Disney movie.

I think to be in politics you have to have the taste for blood on that.

I grew up mostly with classical, big band, and a lot of Irish music - I really didn't start listening to rock and roll until I was maybe sixteen. Show less «

I like to go rock scrambling.

They used to say I was a younger Winona Ryder and that always made me laugh, because I'm three years older than she is. Show less «

Growing up Catholic has been a gift.

First of all - I only believe what I see.

We're not all called to be Dorothy Day.

We have a world that is searching for answers, that is searching for a way back to spirituality.

I did everything I could to stay in college and pay my own way, so I think that if success hadn't come so quickly, I would still be pursuing it. Show less «

Now I listen to all kinds of music except rap, which all sounds the same to me.

I never had to pound the pavement and really struggle after college.
