I don't want to see a movie twice. I don't want to do anything twice.

Audiences are not strangers to me. They're the best friends I've got in my life.

I can't explain chemistry. I really can't. I haven't got a clue what it's all about. It just happens. It's like falling in love. You can't explain why you fall in love or explain why it's this particular person.

I don't have a great talent for explaining myself in acting because I can't explain it.

Making clever speeches takes a lot of work and a lot of time.

You have to be very, very good looking to get ahead in motion pictures.

I love Birmingham, Michigan. It's lovely - you know, it's very similar to the Hamptons.

The people in New York - their humor is on a level that goes, uh, very deep, you know?

I'm funny when I want to be. And I'm even funny when I don't want to be.

I'm a good acting partner for me... when I don't have anyone else, I do really well!

You never know what is happening to yourself when it is happening.

I could have made a lot of money doing 'Golden Girls,' and I would have been good. But the image of it! And for me to work with Betty White every day would be like taking cyanide.

Talent is very dangerous. It alienates people.

Betty White is probably a very nice woman.

Let me tell you about those convents. All that crap about extending the pinkie finger while sipping tea is a myth. Convent schools are breeding grounds for great broads and occasionally one-of-the-boys. Convent schools teach you to play against everything, which is what I'm still doing.

These performers that go on about their technique and craft - oh, puleeze! How boring! I don't know what 'technique' means. But I do know what experience is.

Talent is seductive.

You can't be funny unless you're tragic, and you can't be tragic unless you're funny.

Honestly, this is a big thing to say, but I don't think I've ever been bored. If I even get an inkling of it, I split.

I never thought about living in New York. I just thought it was great.

Quite frankly I don't know how to be happy. I have not a clue.

There are a lot of things I do that I don't want to, but I have to. It's truly an emotional need for me to perform.

I mention I'm going home, and I'm a star immediately! This used to happen with my boyfriends - as soon as I'd say, 'I gotta go home now,' they fell in love.

There's something about it that makes sense, Lent. You give something up, and everything's more joyful.

Isn't this fantastic, what a star I am?

I don't think I'm gonna die tomorrow or even two weeks from now, or even ever. I just don't know - who the hell knows what's gonna happen to them? Nobody! Isn't that comforting? Nobody has a clue. I like that we don't know. And I like that it's somebody else's decision, not mine.

My biggest dream was to get out of Michigan - to discover life beyond the Sacred Heart Convent.

I like celebrities. I love people who are famous. Always have.

I like glasses so I can go out without my makeup. Just grab your coat and get your hat and go.

When the hospital sends for me, when the ambulance comes and I ease my way out of the world, I'd rather be in Detroit, Michigan, than Lenox Hill.

I love New York. I went to New York to become an actress, and I did it. And I won all the awards known to man. And I'm happy. And I came home. I came, I saw, I conquered. And it feels great.

I'm loaded with talent.

I loved being on Broadway, but performing has become exhausting, and I just don't want to live in New York anymore. I'm just sick of the competition in New York, the feeling that I always have to rehearse to keep up my performance. I don't feel like rehearsing, even though it should be my favorite thing in the world to do.

I smoked, I drank, I did all the kicking my heels up type things, but I went to Mass on Sunday.

If I see someone saying the rosary in the wings, I know they've got talent.

I love audiences. My God, the best friends in the world!

I think I have more humour in me than anger. But those two things are great bed-fellows, performance-wise.

There were a lot of lyrics that I sang but didn't understand. But I had this facade in performance of looking like I wrote the book.

I think taking care of yourself, health-wise, in every way, is a 100 percent winner.

Fans recognize me all over the place. But the second you need anything, they're never around! They're like the police!

Growing up, most girls have this image of how they want their wedding to be and things like that. I had none of that except for the cake I wanted, and that's what I got. The cake was the first thing we ordered.

There's times when I'll be out in the middle of the track, standing in the curve, and I'll just laugh. 'What the heck am I doing right now? I'm sliding down the hill at crazy speeds and standing in freezing cold weather.'

Find your passion, set a goal, go to work, evaluate, reassess, and repeat.

The Midland community is huge into softball. They have a lot of competitive men's teams. We played at a beautiful stadium, and our games would be packed every weekend. I'm pretty sure people have my signature on softballs and they don't even know. Because we would just sign so many autographs all of the time.

Traditionally, the treatment for a concussion has been to stare at a wall and wait for your brain to heal itself. Don't watch TV, don't read a book, don't look at your phone, and definitely don't train. It's a torturous protocol for an athlete.

People win medals in all shapes and sizes! And I can't help but say that finding a fiance who loves me unconditionally at any size has played a huge role in my body confidence.

For most people, they only thing they know about bobsled is 'Cool Runnings.' Well, 'Cool Runnings' was, of course, four men in a bobsled, and four-man is considered the highlight of our sport. It's what everybody knows. It's what everybody watches. And it's the big dog of our sport.

My dad was a football player, and I've been the same size since eighth grade, so I get how it can be hard when you don't fit in with the 'normal-size' girls, or your butt and legs are too big for normal-size jeans.

The biggest thing for me is keeping my hair moisturized. My go-tos are the Pantene Gold Series Hydrating Butter Cream and Intense Hydrating Oil.

People say a two-man sled is like driving a racecar, and a four-man is like driving a truck. And it feels that way.
