I don't think I'm great at acting. I think I'm great at directing.

Sabrina ran for seven years with a different director every week.

There was a big question as to whether or not different generations have grown up differently.

I rescued a dog. It was a beautiful.

When I first got pregnant, I freaked out. Then I had to remind myself: I'm turning 30.

Tune in to Kids and Family Week is perfect for me.

I'm singing background on one of Blondie's songs on her new album.

My career has always revolved around what I do and don't want my sisters and brothers seeing me doing.

If I'm going to do something a little bit more adult, I'll do it if it's going to be on at a different time slot or if it's going to be something that kids won't be able to get their hands on.

Eventually, everyone said, Why don't you direct? It would save time. And that's how it started.

I hope to do films. Right now I'm just doing projects that are interesting.

I think a lot of the problem is that at 8 o'clock there's nothing on for kids.

I love directing. It's where my heart is, and it's the way my mind works.

I have six sisters, so I assumed I'd have a girl. Learning I was having a boy was really weird.

I'd always done family-friendly stuff. I wanted to do a film where I could show my darker side and make people uncomfortable.

I used to go to school in Manhattan with a bunch of the City Kids.

I didn't get married. I do have a boyfriend. We live together.

I'm calling from my car, I'm sorry, I'm like running around like crazy.

I don't know enough about daytime, I think, to say anything.

In the Emperor's New Clothes, they got a different celebrity to do each voice. They drew up a picture of each character and then each actor wrote their own part.

I'm not a happy-ending person. I want to know what happens once Cinderella rides off with Prince Charming.

This is the first time in my life I've had hair this short. It's always been down to my waist. I can't hide behind my hair any more.

The whole reason Sabrina came about was because we wanted something good for families to watch on TV.

I don't think I'm great at acting. I think I'm great at directing.

Every prop, every shot, every pearl that rolled across the floor was exactly how I wanted it to be.

Kids aren't going to understand single life in New York City.

It was always part of the plan to move into acting.

Be where the acting is. I live in Houston. Dallas is 4 1/2 hours away. I let them know there's no difference.

My mother keeps things in perspective for me. She makes me realize that the acting I do and love is no more important than what one of my brothers does-he works in a shoe repair shop. If my career ever tapers off, I'll go to college.

In Hungary, acting is a career for which one fits himself as earnestly as one studies for a degree in medicine, law, or philosophy.

I think acting is about forgetting yourself in order to give the best of yourself. It's passing through you more than you're creating it. You're not the flower, but the vase which holds the flower.

In LA, too many people want to go the quickest route from A to B. Method acting offers them that.

I don't see it as a form of healing, because if you have wounds that are bleeding I don't think acting will ever get them to stop. But I find acting is a form of illumination.

Maybe I can't act, but I know the gimmicks. I studied acting all my life and know what's good for me.

I know that if I'd had to go and take an exam for acting, I wouldn't have got anywhere. You don't take exams for acting, you take your courage.

I'm not acting, but I am acting.

I've done a lot of acting. I'm not saying I'm the greatest, but I'd love to act, I'd love to sing.

I had a bonding problem when I went off and boxed for five years. I was over in Europe and Asia fighting because I wanted to do something different; I was tired of acting. But the thing is, when I was done doing that, I couldn't get a job.

Acting for me is not that quid pro quo.

If you're acting, then there's a prescribed way to behave; whereas in life there's no prescribed way. So acting feels like a comfortable way to get through the day.

When I was a kid, the idea of why I wanted acting to be the thing I do for the rest of my life was different. It was, Oh yeah, I'll get girls and be famous.

And then, I suppose, there's also a cinematic reality on top of that. Because it was extremely difficult to keep tabs on, it was quite confusing acting that.

I read. It's also nice for me to get involved in schoolwork, which is a totally different world than acting. It makes me feel like I am doing things that normal people are doing at my age.

It's a living, breathing thing, acting.

A few nights ago I went to a Hollywood screening of a small independent film made by Sally Kirkland, an old friend of mine who also did terrific job acting in it. There were other actors in it and they were all terrific.

Plastic surgery and breast implants are fine for people who want that, if it makes them feel better about who they are. But, it makes these people, actors especially, fantasy figures for a fantasy world. Acting is about being real being honest.

I don't see my dancing or acting as two separate things. I don't define them separately, so I can't say one has helped the other, It's all the same thing. More than anything I love being on stage and performing.

In any case, his judgment and set of values, acting alone or through his assistants, determine not only what is gold and what is dross but the design of the history which he creates out of the metal. The historian decides what is significant, and what is not.

It always surprised me that I was getting acting work.
