“My darling father gave me some decent getaway sticks - my legs are OK.” — Julie Bowen Quote

My darling father gave me some decent getaway sticks - my legs are OK.

I'm less comfortable in stilettos than I am in running shoes.

It's a war of attrition. If you have patience and a modicum of faith in yourself your chances are not too bad.

I play a scientist in a futuristic world in which 99% of the men have been wiped out. As a result, the women are nearly all homosexuals and the children are cloned.

I haven't really had that many opportunities to play 'lead' so I guess I jumped at the chance. I have also never done any 'sci-fi' projects and thought it might be fun.

A lot of people have been very dismissive of me. I'm hardly the darling of the NME. It used to get me down a bit, but you reach a point where you can laugh it off.

You have to be clear what your message is and what you're doing. I mean, Miley Cyrus is an amazing talent, and sometimes you kind of just want to say, 'We know you're not Hannah Montana anymore. We know that, my dear. My darling. Now, go be great.'

My mother tells this joke about how when I was little I used to say, 'Mummy, all I want is a stable home!' and she'd reply, 'That's all right, darling, we'll buy you a stable.'

I'll only work if something delicious comes along or if a darling friend asks me to flutter my wings.
