As parents, I think we're always novices, and every day presents a new challenge.

I've proved to myself I can get along in different kinds of parts and different kinds of productions.

Basically, movies come down to economics, and they're always too expensive. From a producer's point of view, an actor is either going to make him money or save him money.

Acting is a precarious business. I have had periods where I felt like I couldn't get arrested, but you have to see it as a long game.

There are very few passions in my life - The man upstairs, family, and football.

The thing that I like about Pee-wee is it can exist on the level of midnight college cult movies that the hip kids are into and, at the same time, it could be something a kid and his family watch together. Being able to straddle both lines of being subversive and, at the same time, very inclusive - I love that about the character.

I get work done in half the time if the family is still asleep. When my family wakes up, I've already had a productive morning and am ready to enjoy breakfast with them before I start conquering the rest of my day.

There are many times when I think I would have rather died with my husband. It would have been pleasanter, simpler. But it would have been worse for the children and the family in general.
