“Dream big!”

“Everybody said, 'You hit it so big when you were on 'Ally McBeal.' ' I didn't do anything for a year after 'Ally McBeal,' and I had to write David Kelley to get myself back on 'Ally' a second time because I thought the character should be on again.”

“I always knew I wanted to be a character in the movies. When I was growing up, I had to have a lot of surgery, and I spent a lot of time recovering at home and in the hospital. Watching movies took me away from my own problems and gave me a total escape.”

“I have had heart surgery three times, so I know what it was like to have pins and needles stuck in you.”

“I realized my life was not going to be, per se, normal.”

“I'm not evil, but some people are freaked out by a living doll.”

“It's not the size of the dreamer, it's the size of the dream.”

“My size is an asset to me. People write roles for me. If I was just another blond-haired, brown-eyed, 18-year-old actor, I'd be left unrecognized. People remember me.”
