I thought I wanted to be a brain surgeon until I realized all the schooling it required. I didn't like school very much so I had to come up with something else.

I'm determined to be a diva.

My most recent purchase was a black lace corset.

My parents used to take me to a lot of theatre when I was young.

The idea of running around and screaming about Jason Voorhees trying to kill you was fun.

It's a dream part, running around with guns, being an agent.

I sit on my duff, smoke cigarettes and watch TV. I'm not exactly a poster girl for healthy living.

It doesn't matter if you're staying at a four-star hotel, you will never have your whole closet with you.

I do see myself going to LA. Not anytime soon.

I had cleavage that would make Dolly Parton proud. But those things are really heavy and I'm pretty slight of frame, so I took them out. No one even noticed.

I toyed with the idea of pursuing a career as a lawyer just because I like to argue.

I was actually a bit disappointed about the amount of sex in the show. I think Backus should get out a bit more, get a relationship, perhaps make her a lesbian.

The idea of taking off my shoes and trying on all these clothes is so exhausting, I just leave.

I like breaking the rules.

The thing about Canada is, you're not really considered a Canadian actor unless you do something with the CBC.

I'm totally on a mission to find my signature scent, but I'm too mercurial.

I'm a perfume whore.

I'm off to save the universe again. It's a tough job but someone has to do it, and I'm glad it's me.

It doesn't take much to make me happy.

I'm so much more of an East Coast girl than a West Coast girl.

Men with style are great because they have a sense of self.

Seppuku is Japanese for ritual suicide. I thought, What a cute name for a coat.

Thank God my parents had an abundance of patience.

I quite enjoy science fiction.

Being stuck in airports, you always end up buying perfume and sunglasses.

My relationships with my loved ones always take precedence over work.

I'm very proud to be Canadian, but I would move to New York in a heartbeat.

I was taken to one place by a director, and he bought me a lap dance.

Thongs don't show. With jeans, you're always going to get panty lines and I think that's just a big mistake.

For the past 10 years, people have been making fun of the eighties. Why are we bringing them back?

I did some artistic nudes when I was I 8 with a French-Canadian photographer while I was modeling. They were beautiful shots, and they were not about nudity.

I didn't have a boyfriend until I was 17. There were boys at school that I would find out later had a crush on me but I was too shy to talk to them.

I'm thinking of going to programming school. Learn how to sit down at any computer and learn to do anything on it. That's all I have left and have interest in.

I went to elementary school in Ottawa, and then to a private secondary school.

People react to fear, not love; they don't teach that in Sunday School, but it's true.

For example, UNICEF works with governments to change legislation such as in India where a law was passed raising the age of compulsory school completion to keep children in school and away from the workplace for longer.

In 1975 I decided that there was no future in flying (airline jobs were impossible to get, and who wants a job where you are judged only by seniority?) and headed off to grad school.

Education is a private matter between the person and the world of knowledge and experience, and has little to do with school or college.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

A drunkard would not give money to sober people. He said they would only eat it, and buy clothes and send their children to school with it.

A good dancer is an educated one, so don't abandon school.

In high school and college all my friends and my brother wrestled.

I was an elementary school teacher.

I would not be gotten into a schoolhouse until I was eight years old. Nor did I accomplish much after I started. I doubt if I had gone to school six months in all when my father died. I was fourteen at the time.

And I began to tell little anecdotes that had happened to me, and people would laugh. And I began to like that, you know. But I knew that, 'cause I'd do that in school, but I wouldn't do it out there in front of all them people.

I was dyslexic, I had no understanding of schoolwork whatsoever. I certainly would have failed IQ tests. And it was one of the reasons I left school when I was 15 years old. And if I - if I'm not interested in something, I don't grasp it.

I don't make my own schedule - it's constructed around my sons' school schedules.

Right out of high school I never had the fear of getting beat, which is how most people lose.
