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.

I'm determined to be a diva.

My most recent purchase was a black lace corset.

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.

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 have done things politically, and I've been running a business at the same time, but I sort of joke that to some extent I do more than most legislators have done in their whole careers, and I've been doing it as a part-time job.

I believe that if a man does a job as well as a woman, he should be paid as much.

Don't let ambition get so far ahead that it loses sight of the job at hand.

You really should not do this job unless you're willing to put in that enormous amount of effort. You should not do the job unless you're willing to take risks. And you shouldn't do the job unless you're willing to lose the job, too.

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.

If we wait for the U.S. to do something, we will be waiting for a very long time. It's Europe, it's Australia, it's the other developed and middle developing countries that have got to do the job.

Even if I don't have a job, I work on plays and scenes.

In the middle of a recession no tax increase is justified because it kills jobs, and any tax increase is a job-killing measure and should be defeated.

It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.

Well, I think that those of us in public life that are trying to do a good job, and that are faced with this popular new game that the media has of being critical of everything that anybody in public office does probably are thin-skinned.

People may take a job for more money, but they often leave it for more recognition.

I always saw being in a band a full time job.

Promoting job creation and economic growth in the Hudson Valley is one of my top priorities in Congress.

A politician will do anything to keep his job - even become a patriot.

Harvard is first and foremost a university and not a consulting operation, and our job here is to teach and to research and to create knowledge on Asia in conjunction and in cooperation with scholars as well as with political, intellectual, and cultural leaders in Asia.

While a lab Director can get done the things that he regards as important, he has the more important job of bringing out the best ideas of the broader scientific community.

The growth of technology is such that it is not possible today for a nuclear physicist to switch into medical physics without training. The field is now much more technical. More training is needed to do the job.
