My favorite thing to do is just stay home with the dogs and read or watch movies and be together.

That's all you ever want - to do your job well enough that people on the other end are happy.

The ratio of celebrity divorces is probably about the same as non-celebrity divorces; it's just that the non-celebrity divorces don't get a lot of public scrutiny, normally.

Theater is great because you're able to tell a narrative arc without a break. I think it's more about the material and whether what we get offered is good.

I'll quit coffee. It won't be easy drinking my Bailey's straight, but I'll get used to it. It'll still be the best part of waking up.

I've done three Broadway musicals and tons of concerts and all kinds of things, but nobody knows that except the people in New York.

I feel like Nick and I have the best relationship and the best marriage.

In terms of the first Christmas when I met everybody, I went over to Nick's grandfather's house where they were having the big Christmas dinner, and they have this tradition of this thing called oyster stew.

We do jigsaw puzzles. Here's a pro tip: Listen to an audiobook while doing it.

Sean is so funny. One time he went to Ireland for two weeks with his mother, and Ireland is so beautiful, and he got back; we were like, 'How was it?' and he was like, 'Ugh I was so bored.'

People get up and say, 'I didn't prepare a speech because I didn't think I would win.' Well, that's dumb.

He is not like Ron Swanson at all because he's very emotional and vulnerable. He is all of the things that I guess Ron was really deep down. He's not a Libertarian, but he does like bacon and meat.

John Cleese was my personal favorite because he played my husband for a whole season - and Minnie Driver. We almost had our own, like, show all living in a house together. And Gene Wilder was just so dear.

I think people expect me to dress a bit like Veronica from 'Shameless,' in vest tops and denim skirts.

I'm really unimaginative - once I like something, I fix on it.

I know I sometimes come across as being quite dismissive about acting. But I'm not. It's like people reading their diaries in public. I don't want to talk about how I create characters. I find it self-indulgent.

Crying does not equal good acting.

Unfortunately, at the end of the day, when you watch yourself on the screen, you are always you.

I look up to the older generation of men - Arthur Scargill, Tony Benn, Jeremy Corbyn - but my main role model has been my step-granddad Jim. He's brilliant, very political, quite eccentric.

My kind of work is very intense. The trouble with me is that I completely fling myself into it. I get giddy. I get terrible crushes on jobs.

I wasn't an obvious actress in any sense of the word.

I was a tomboy. I had a pudding-bowl haircut; I wore big Doc Martens and dungarees.

I'm unusual in that I've worked more as I've got older.

What's wrong with wanting the best for everybody?
