In terms of sexual orientation I don't really feel I've changed ... I'd been with men all my life, and I'd never fallen in love with a woman. But when I did, it didn't seem so strange. I'm just a woman in love with another woman.
What I do for exercise sort of depends on what's happening in the rest of my life.
Women are half the population and they know how to take care of themselves, if they are only given access to health care.
Nancy Reagan, when presented with kids with really painful disabilities and deformities, she was completely undaunted.
Now I have a third must-do on my list of things to do with cancer, and it's this: follow your gut, ask questions, don't be complacent.
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. So the only thing to really be afraid of is if you don't go get your mammograms.
I'm a very big public school advocate.
Nancy Reagan would just run up to these kids [with really painful disabilities and deformities] and hold them and pick them up... because I think she felt so judged all the time and she felt so unlovable.
Unlike me, a lot of child actors are very short, which is why they work. So when they're 15 they can play 11 or when they're 18 they can play 14. They look young for so long, they have abilities a much younger kid wouldn't have.
I can't go on anymore bad dates. I would rather be home alone than out with some guy who sells socks on the internet.
I go for my completely routine mammogram and then I get a call from my gynecologist. And she says, 'Well, I have some - it's not such great news, but here it is, but it's very small and we're just going to get in there and take it right out, right away, and then you'll probably have radiation.'
I think Nancy Reagan felt so judged all the time and she felt so unlovable.
I used to just take every job that seemed relatively appealing. But now I take a job and it's in the trades the next day - it feels like people are watching and waiting to see what you do, and when you do take a job, attention is noted.
I feel that between my experience and my mother's, breast cancer is a little bit like someone who lives next door. I know what that person looks like and what their daily habits are.
