My Whole Thing Is Quality Of Life. . .it Must Always Be Easy And Low-maintenance And Stress-free, And That Means Not Trying To Fit Too Much In. I Don’t Ever Want To Be In A Hurry. I Want To Enjoy The Moments.

I Would Point Out That I'm An Actress For A Reason! If I Were Popular In High School, I Would Have Considered Another Career Because I Wouldn't Have Been Alone In My Room, Making Up Other Characters For Myself. I Definitely Had Growing Pains. The Popular Kids Didn't Want Anything To Do With The Girl Who Was Starting The Drama Club.

You Know, One Of My Biggest Dreams In Life Is To Play A Disney Princess.

I Will End Up With Someone In The Arts. I Am Positive. I Eat, Breathe And Sleep Acting. And I'll End Up With Someone Who Is Happy Staying At Home And Having Me Cook Supper. But I Also Really Need To Be Intellectually Challenged And Stimulated. I Want Someone Bookish, And Someone Who Is Passionate.

I Was Afraid That My Success Would Be Dependent Partially Upon My Body, And It's True I Can't Be 20 Pounds Heavier And Play The Leading Lady. But I'm On The Smaller End Of An Average-sized Woman. I'm Positive Of This, Mathematically. And I Still Get To Play The Lead, Without Having To Be Anorexic Like So Many Of My Peers.

Costume Designers Don't Care About Trends. They Appreciate, Above So Many Other Qualities, That Tailoring Is Everything, Which Is A Mantra For The Way I Dress. Ladies: The Most Important Thing In Clothing Is To Find A Good, Inexpensive Tailor, Because Clothes At The Stores Are Made For Bodies That Are Anomalies.

People Always Say A Script Will Be 'brought To Life In A Magical Way,' But For Me That Has Been Proven Wrong Time And Time Again.

I've Always Been Sort Of Addicted To Genre-jumping. I've Never Been In The Mood To Do The Same Thing I Did Last Time. Hence, Me Going From 'big Love' To Romantic Comedy, To Period Film I Can't Sit Still.

I Started Reading And Learned That We Don't Need Any Of It - Meat, Dairy Products. We Get Everything We Need Without Those Things - Except Maybe B12, But There's This Whole Controversy That Maybe We're Only Getting B12 Because The Animals Are Being Fed B12 Supplements.

A Lot Of Times, I Think That What I Do For A Living Has No Integrity. 'once Upon A Time' Has Changed That To A Certain Extent Because The Reaction We Get From Children Out In The World Is So Fulfilling, I Cannot Even Articulate It. There's Nothing Like Being Greeted As Snow White By A Hyperventilating Child Versus Ginnifer Goodwin.

But Often Times, I Feel Like I'm So Blessed, It's Not Fair. That What I'm Doing Is Not Contributing To The Good Of The World.

In Real Life, People Don't Try To Live Dramatically, People Try To Live In A Light Way. People Try To Laugh.

It’s Like, If You Can’t Focus On A Movie For 90 Minutes Without Looking At Your Phone, Then Don’t Go To The Movies!

Oh, My, Yes. I Was Raised In This Southern Culture Where If A Guy Was Sarcastic, That Just Meant He Didn't Know How To Show His Love - But Secretly He Cared! I Completely Bought That. The Men I Chased And The Things I Put Up With - It Was Criminal.

I Understand Why Society, Especially American Society, Is Gravitating Toward Fairy Tales, Given Our Economy. We've Been Exploring The World Of Witches And Wizards For Years. We've Been Exploring The World Of Vampires For Years. Clearly The Public - I Mean, I Feel Like All Of This Was Ushered In By 'harry Potter' - In My Own Fannish Beliefs.

Exploring The World

They Say Men And Women Can't Be Friends, But That's Not True.

It Took Me Realizing That A Broken Heart Has Never Actually Killed Anyone To Find The Courage To Ask For What I Want, In Just About Every Situation. That Was Part Of My Own Growing Up.

I Can Safely Say That Other Than Macaroni And Cheese, There's No Processed Food In My Life. There's No Inorganic Food In My Life These Days. There's No Junk Food. There's Not A Lot Of Sugar. There's No Soy. I Mean, Really Everything That's Going Into My Body Is Pretty Pure.

I Cherish All Of The Times I've Fallen On My Face And Made Mistakes, Because Those Experiences Have Made Me Who I Am.

With The Counseling Of My Family Doctor, My Mother Ended Up Turning To Weight Watchers And Their Children's Program.
