I bought a gun because POW POW sounds a lot better than Hey, put that back!
Cleveland is my hometown, and the Indians have a narrow but rich history.

I just admire everybody and sit in awe and watch them.
It's such a pleasure to work in these movies, it's almost like it's not really happening.
I have friends who will say, "Oh you gotta come and see our show. " And the first thing I say is, "Is it sketch or improv?" I'll go in a minute to see a sketch show. I love sketch; it's my favorite form. But if it's all improv, they're either very good and it's annoying how good they are and it makes you feel bad, or they're not too good then you're sweating for them. And you don't want to sweat for them, see actors repeating each other's lines.
I don't know why my lines that were cut from the film didn't make it onto the DVD. I have offered to go into the editing room with Christopher and work shoulder to shoulder with him to fit all my lines in. I think he thinks I'm kidding. I'm only trying to help.
'I tried and it didn't work' is a lot better than, 'I wish I'd tried'.

When I was a struggling actress in New York in my 20s I worked in a burger joint called Diane's Uptown. I actually loved waiting tables. I still keep who I was in my mind and never take anything for granted.
If you really like someone, it doesn't matter what their mouth feels or tastes like. The kiss is still awesome.
