I hope I don't just sit around moping for two years.

I dig science fiction, though it was never really my thing.

A comic can be aesthetically beautiful. I think they captured it beautifully and accurately.

Yancy is actually a Native-American name, but I'm Irish. Go figure.

People just kind of associate me with kicking some ass.

I've always played strong women who are doing their own thing.

My father used to sing to me in my mother's womb. I think I can name about any tune in two beats.

To say I'm the easiest person to live with would be a lie.

I'm just an actress. They try to give me as little information as possible.

I think sometimes women who are supposed to be strong are also written as mean and vindictive.

Whether it goes to series or stands by itself, I'm proud of what we did with it, not only from the standpoint of what it could have been, but for itself.

My taste in music and entertainment is quite eclectic.

My mother's side of the family was in the production side of theatre. My grandfather, Jose Vega, was a general manager for Neil Simon shows on Broadway.

Don't we all just really try to fake it well?

I'm open to sci-fi, but I was never a diehard fan. I have no idea why it keeps following me. I'm extremely lucky, I guess; it's a lucrative venue.

I think seeing some of the past can be helpful, especially if you're into crime solving.

Imagine if it happened to you: All of a sudden you find this thing on your wrist and people are telling you it has powers. I would be a little skeptical myself.

I hope I don't just sit around moping for two years.

Once you get into a part, and someone sees you, you get asked to do it again.

I'll try anything once.

I grew up in Greenwich Village. Dad was friends with John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

I'm the oldest 26-year-old I know. A lot of experience has been crammed into a short amount of time. Some days I feel a good 65, 70. Like I want to lie down.

Women have been kicking ass for centuries.

My junior high was dreadful. I see a lot of my fellow alumni on America's Most Wanted.

My grandfather was a cop in Long Island. I often try to draw on things that I've heard about him.

I pretty much make time for that weekly manicure.

I am so happy to be on a show with writing I wanted to participate in.

I love old movies. The '40s theatre pace is fantastic.

I had to skydive for the movie and I was terrified. Like everybody, I thought it was going to be one of those experiences that changes your life. It didn't.

I've spent a lot of time and money trying to keep my anger in control.

I never worked less than 16-hour days on South Beach.

I can be extremely vulnerable. People are tough on me because they think I can handle it.

I don't know that I'd necessarily want to see into the future. I don't want to know what's happening next.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

Hope is the struggle of the soul, breaking loose from what is perishable, and attesting her eternity.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.

The tender heart, the broken and contrite spirit, are to me far above all the joys that I could ever hope for in this vale of tears.

The most important training, though, is to experience life as a writer, questioning everything, inventing multiple explanations for everything. If you do that, all the other things will come; if you don't, there's no hope for you.

I hope that people will finally come to realize that there is only one 'race' - the human race - and that we are all members of it.

The only hope is that our civilization will collapse at a certain point, as always happens in history. Then, out of barbarity, a renaissance.

Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love. And whatever your beliefs, honor your creator, not by passively waiting for grace to come down from upon high, but by doing what you can to make grace happen... yourself, right now, right down here on Earth.

Hope is generally a wrong guide, though it is very good company by the way.

I don't sit in the corner waiting for death: death has to pursue me. I'm going strong. I hope to reach 100 and ask for an extension, just like my grandmother did.

When I talk to people in need, they tell me they want to hope; they are eager for opportunity; they are ready for better days. And I can tell you that every time their hopes are disappointed, all nations lose.

I'd hope to reach any kid who feels apart from the group - those who seem to be outsiders, who feel different. Kids who want to reach their parents often don't know how to do so.

If we can just take a few companies, and use those as models, as examples, to show the rest of corporate America how they can become more competitive, that's what I'd like to do and that's what I hope to do.

It's part of the calling to at least do a few songs in the show that give people some hope. There's so much hurt in this world and... music is such a great healing balm and a great way to forget your troubles.

Just as a mother finds pleasure in taking her little child on her lap, there to feed and caress him, in like manner our loving God shows His fondness for His beloved souls who have given themselves entirely to Him and have placed all their hope in His goodness.

Yesterday I was a dog. Today I'm a dog. Tomorrow I'll probably still be a dog. Sigh! There's so little hope for advancement.
