If I was 14 and knew some gay people, I wouldn't nearly have had the struggle I had. Our world is definitely changing.

I've had so many interviews where the last question is, Are you gay? I had to find very creative ways to say that I was gay, but that I wasn't going to talk about it.

You live with the fear people might find out. Then you actually have the courage to tell people and they go, I don't think you are gay. It's enough to drive you crazy.

I try to be feminine, yet intellectual and smart at the same time. You don't see enough of that.

I want to exude strength and intelligence.

We must be able to inspire. That's my goal in acting.

In high school I had sex with girls quite a few times. They were straight women who I convinced to jump in the sack with me.

I stumbled into acting and just loved it. I deferred law school-and I’m still deferred.

I’m not quite as limber, but for my peers and my age group, I’m still top notch!

I contemplate the idea of being better and it brings to mind my favorite quote from Wayne Dyer, our friend and the man who is about to marry me to the woman of my dreams. “True nobility isn’t about being better than anyone else; it’s about being better than you used to be.” “Yes, Ma. I am better.” I am better than I used to be.
