Mammograms are really sort of a gift. You can either catch something early or count your lucky stars because nothing was discovered. Either way, you`re ahead of the game.

I`ve never played a character where I`ve had so much fun on the physical end. I don`t want to say I like it too much but it`s fun having a gun on you and getting to manhandle men.

This show has shown me how to throw a punch. But watching my future sister-in-law go through breast cancer has also shown me how to take one.

I`ve been doing TV for fourteen years, and I`ve always had a fascination with the political business side. It`s ruled my life. Ratings or no ratings have decided where I live, who I work with, and how long I`ll be doing that particular job.

This is my sixth series, and I`m burned out wondering if a show is going to change my life. Don`t get me wrong, I love when people recognize my work. But I`ve given up worrying about whether it`ll be seen by two people or two million or 22 million.

What woman wants a camera following around her naked butt?

I would assume most people hate my character. But I`m hoping that I`m the character you love to hate.

My guess is there are more women in the TV industry then there are on Wall Street. But it`s that same idea of having to play in a man`s world and finding that balance without being always stereotyped as a bitch.
