I remember feeling enormous pressure because I didn't want to be Shirley Temple. Shirley Temple was Shirley Temple, and I didn't ever feel like I could live up to that.

I remember telling the agent, 'I don't want to do anything but Broadway.' She was like, 'That's not really possible because there is not that much Broadway. So I'll send you out on TV and stuff like that.'

I have a memory like an elephant. I remember every elephant I've ever met.

I remember feeling that. I couldn't do, nor did I want to do, the kinds of roles I'd been doing.

We have this habit of romanticizing the lives of writers. I remember when I was a kid, I was like, 'I want to be Kurt Vonnegut.'

I remember 'Hannah Montana' came out, and I was so depressed, I started crying because I was like, 'I want to do that.'
