I think growing up in New York, you see so much at such a young age, there's no bubble to escape into.

There's no shame in owning a New Kids on the Block t-shirt. They were my first concert when I was eight.

I think a lot of people, especially women, feel like to be whole, you need to find part of yourself in another person - probably because of the fables we're told as kids.

I'm a health-food junkie, so all of my food is a splurge, money-wise!

Being a single woman is like going off to war.

Most single women have been in that situation where there is a silent guy in your group. You don't see him as boyfriend material. He's just there, but you know all the same people.

I guess actors are very sensitive people. We're porous.

Most actors and actresses are performative as people.

Women always try to see the one good part of The Weird Guy because the dating landscape is so bleak. Women will say, 'He's very odd, but he likes to cook. He's creepy, but he makes good pancakes!'

The secret to a long-lasting relationship is perpetually imagining the worst. It's a world view tracing back to my Eastern European ancestry and one I draw upon regularly.

I love 'Husbands and Wives,' Woody Allen's movie. It's like one of my all-time favorites. I could watch it over and over again.

In my view, relationship movies never get old because humanity will never not be confounded by their relationships.
