People get into relationships. They get married and have kids, and all of a sudden, you can't just pick up and go get coffee, or go away for the weekend together, or go to a costume party together. It becomes a thing you have to plan.
You have to hold on to what you find because life has a way of throwing you curve balls that you never expect.
There's nothing like theater. It's really amazing. But it does take up all of your time. I would like to get into more film, just because I find it super fascinating.
There's no way that you're going to please all of America, or all of the fans.
I wasn't a very good student. I prefer to learn by experience.
I really like playing other people. There is no other feeling like it, to have a different voice come out of you and to have a different life for a couple of hours. I like being myself. But maybe it's like you ride a bike every day and someone says, 'For two hours tonight do you want to ride this Harley?' You'd be like, 'OK yeah!
30 Rock' is my favorite TV show and Tina Fey is one of my heroes. She was a dream to work with and the whole cast was just absolutely lovely.
I think that's important to have in something like a national television show. It's important to portray a woman realistically, and not just as a bridezilla.
I did plays in high school and I really loved it, but I think singing was always what I loved most of all.
I love movies, but I think people think relationships are supposed to go how they go in movies. The ones I like are the ones that represent life.
On my first date, my boyfriend asked me if I wanted to eat a la carte, and I said that I would prefer to stay inside!
I keep expectations so embarrassingly low that I broke my contract and went and got a hair-cut.
That's what's so cool about 'Once:' There is a layer of darker stuff, but it's balanced by this incredible light.
Every time I do a play, it's as if I've never done one before. I'm always confused. I always am convinced I'm going to be fired. I'm like, 'I don't remember how to act. I don't know how to do this.' And, it's just a very slow process, and then, all of a sudden, it's just there one day. I still don't understand how it happens.
