Citater
- Sometimes you have to get to know someone really well to realize you're really strangers.
- There is a dark side. I tend not to be as optimistic as Mary Richards. I have an anger in me that I carry from my childhood experiences -- I expect a lot of myself and I'm not too kind to myself.
- Diabetes is an all-too-personal time bomb which can go off today, tomorrow, next year, or 10 years from now – a time bomb affecting millions like me and the children here today.
- I'm not an actress who can create a character. I play me.
- Diets are for those who are thick and tired of it.
