There are a lot of great actresses out there. You learn to appreciate each one for what they offer.

If you watch the show and the characters don't look at each other while they're talking, the actors probably aren't getting along.

There are a lot of other things in this world that can and will bring me joy. Acting is one of them.

We don't move on in the stunt unless it looks like a hit. So when I see it on TV, I'm generally satisfied that people are going to buy it.

People get on a show and they fought tooth and nail. Almost 95% of the actors out there want to be on a television series. Then as soon as they get onto one, no, no, I want to be a movie star. This television series stuff, no, no no.

You show your vulnerability through relationships, and those feelings are your soft spot. You need to have a soft spot.

In terms of being a role model, I didn't start out to be one. I don't go to work every day with that in mind. But, I do get a lot of fan mail from young girls.

I've been really fortunate to go from series to series to series.

I never was really into comics as a child, and I think if you miss the boat when you're a kid, you don't necessarily pick up on it when you're an adult.

I think I'm a people person. I get very attached to people. And I've become so attached to all the people on my show, the cast, the crew and the producers.

We take the show very seriously, but we don't take ourselves seriously.

My first paying job, when I was 15, I was a day camp counselor.

Women can't be afraid to look like action heroes. It's not always pretty, but when it's on the screen, it translates well to the audience.

In the beginning, people think vulnerability will make you weak, but it does the opposite. It shows you're strong enough to care.

Acting isn't the be-all end-all. There are a lot of other things in my life that will bring me joy if I didn't act anymore.

There are a lot of great actresses out there. You learn to appreciate each one for what they offer.

I competed in track for 10 years and have been doing kickboxing forever.

When you're fighting with a stunt person, your intent is to miss.

I came to acting in a very circuitous way.

I read every script from beginning to end, and I read every draft that I can. I like the show, I like the character, and I want to protect both of those things.

It's part of the job to compensate for outfit.

The most important thing is to just be good at what you do. You do a good job playing the character, and people will be taken up with your character, not your clothes.

It doesn't help anybody to put out a bad script.

Linda Hamilton is my hero. She was so tough and so strong and so vulnerable at the same time. I think that's what woman action figures are allowed to be: vulnerable, in a way that women are.

I approach my character with the question: What would an animal think? How would an animal respond? A lot of times, it's quick action and no fear, and sometimes it's irrational fear. You don't always know.

Cast changes are a hard thing. For two years, we had this little family. We weren't together when these changes were decided upon. It all happened during our hiatus.

That's the thing with sci-fi and action roles. You have to play the danger as real. If you don't, you end up with egg on your face. You have to commit. You can't think about how stupid it might look without the special effects.

When I was in university, my dream was to be a coach, like a high school track coach. Not to teach.

I can't say that I've made the transition to movies.

I think I've paid my dues. I've really put in a lot of time on set.

I did a lot of stunts, so the harness work isn't foreign to me either.

I desperately want a dog, but I've been told I travel too much, and I'm not allowed to have a dog.

It's all about exploring the more unpredictable aspects in the character, not just fighting people.

I would be very happy doing movies. I love to work and I think I'm a little different.

I've been working some really long hours for the last five or six years. Anybody who works on series television knows, and especially women because women spend probably two hours more than the guys with all their hair and makeup crap.

Most women don't play like guys do: they don't wrestle, fight, get into brawls. They don't know how to express themselves in a physical, active way.

I prefer to work with grey characters rather than black and white.

MF Doom is like so out-of-the-box and just crazy.

I don't want to represent man as he is, but only as he might be.

I'm not really Type A, but A minus.

I am an American, steeped in American values. But I know on an emotional level what it means to be of the Chinese culture.

I would probably be a teacher if I weren't a comedian.

It was my first straight dramatic role, and the most adult, intelligent one I have ever played.

TUESDAY Just another word for Monday.

There can be little question that the tall building presents one of the most difficult challenges to the architect.

My primary responsibility is to be funny.

ISIS controls a territory roughly the size of Maryland where 8 million people live. If it's attacked and toppled, who will fill the void?

Persons who have a painful affection in any part of the body and are in a great measure sensible of the pain are disordered in intellect.

Children must be impressed with the fact that the greatest heroes are those who fight to help others, not those who fight for power or glory. They must be made to understand that victory does not prove that the thing fought for is right, nor that defeat proves that a cause is wrong.
