I definitely connected to the fact that life gets out of control and you end up doing things and wishing you were doing other things instead.
My aunty says I'm the double of my father. He was a workaholic, which I've definitely inherited. And like me, he could be the life and soul of the party, but also quite withdrawn.
When I've had hard times in my life, the one thing about being in TV is that it's positive. I withdrew to 'Cheers,' it was familiar in that it was family. It had a kind of realistic positiveness to it.
Sometimes I want to withhold judgement on whether something is good or bad, but I do feel like identifying with TV characters - connecting to them emotionally more than you connect to literal, physical people in your life - causes problems. They just don't have the same existence or boundaries as you do. They resemble us, but they are not us.
A tree you pass by every day is just a tree. If you are to closely examine what a tree has and the life a tree has, even the smallest thing can withstand a curiosity, and you can examine whole worlds.
I saw the 'Wizard of Oz' recently and realized that, all my life, I thought they were real monkeys with wings. That's how scary that movie was for me.
Life is a mystery. Life is uncertain. It makes one feel a bit wobbly to realize that.
Woe to the man whose heart has not learned while young to hope, to love - and to put its trust in life.
Does anyone want to see a person who's making the money that the newspapers say I'm making complaining, 'Woe is me, my life is terrible, and people are being unfair?' No one would've had any patience for that. I wouldn't have any patience for that.
I cannot love as I have loved, And yet I know not why; It is the one great woe of life To feel all feeling die.
I never woke up and thought, 'I really want to live a bold life.'
I woke up and realized life is great and people are awesome and life is worth living.
In real life, wolves will do anything to avoid contact with mankind.
From 19 to 28 there was a lot of turmoil in my life, but in a stuck way. Then, around 28, my life started to get shaken up. I realized I wanted to grow more and that anything that wasn't working in my life, I could fix it. I feel like I came into my womanhood. And that was when I got married.
I think it's a question which particularly arises over women writers: whether it's better to have a happy life or a good supply of tragic plots.
Everyone has wondered if his or her life will ultimately be a happy one.
Oh, how I treasure this freedom. I really do It's a glorious, wonderful experience. I am off marriage - for life!
Being on a movie set is wonderful experience, but it's a bubble - it isn't real life.
Since my dimples only appear whenever I smile, facing everything in life with that smile is a wonderful feeling. Eyes are also the window to one's self. Just a look can reflect your identity and experiences.
You have to remember what's most important in life. I am loved by so many people and have a wonderful job. I know I'm incredibly blessed. I am a completely lucky human being.
