I just can't seem to make myself care about what I look like when I am working out.
— Julie Bowen
I consider a day without running a crappy day. When I don't get to run, I am a grump, but some days my schedule just doesn't allow me to.
I read books more than I go out. As a matter of fact, I get a little concerned about some of my anti-social habits. I will choose a night with Somerset Maugham or Russell Banks over a crowded bar any day.
I would love to do more movies, but the reality is women have many more opportunities on television to play a greater variety of characters.
My darling father gave me some decent getaway sticks - my legs are OK.
There's an expression: Great is the enemy of the good. Sometimes in trying to be great, you make a mess of things.
You don't want people to suffer or get fat when they're pregnant.
I have three kids. I should know how to take care of them.
I always come across sounding like I hate my children. I actually love them very much.
I grew up playing field hockey and lacrosse - prep school sport - and I was terrible at them.
My parents had an old-fashioned ideal of college, that four years at a liberal arts college should be a liberal arts education.
Women in Hollywood are tiny, but women in soap operas are the tiniest people alive!
It was harder to get my driver's license than to get pregnant and give birth.
I have a big mouth.
I've loved doing 'E.R.' for the quality of the writing and the great people I get to work with.
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.
I don't always run in the mornings, but I am definitely better if I run in the mornings.
I'm built like a 14-year-old boy. I have no waist, so anything I wear has to have a lot of trickeration going on. I don't fit into girl dresses. I can't just slip it on.
As a matter of fact, I get a little concerned about some of my anti-social habits.
As I have gotten older, I've discovered the joys of being lazy.
I'm so not stylish by nature, but I've learned to work with what I have.
I was class mom at the preschool one year and I was pretty much asked not to do that again!
I've worn some ugly shoes.
Children are like crazy, drunken small people in your house.
I love my job.
Running was the first thing I discovered that I was any good at.
Baltimore is a great place.
I'm less comfortable in stilettos than I am in running shoes.
I'm incredibly lucky.
I suffer the terrible disease of low self-esteem.
It's a war of attrition. If you have patience and a modicum of faith in yourself your chances are not too bad.
I met Clinton at a benefit for teachers, which was a very good charity, but I met him for about 90 seconds, and I thought it was important to meet the leader of the free world. So I stood next to him for a photograph, and then apparently that's all it takes.
I would like to say that I am a very relaxed, loving person who is not competitive, but that's a lie!
Television is where the best work for women is right now. I would love to do more movies, but the reality is women have many more opportunities on television to play a greater variety of characters.
I read books more than I go out.
I feel the most pulled together when I'm going for the tomboyish thing.
Sometimes good enough is good enough.
Immaculate conception is the only way another kid is coming out of me!
I do find it odd people choose to do stuff that makes them look like crazy Hollywood faces, but I've got zero judgment.
I'm not in shape.
I consider a day without running a crappy day.
People are so easily impressed by running, but I run pretty frequently.
I had many decades of me time and now I just don't have that anymore. There are days when I rail against it.
People always tell me I have a lot of guy energy.
I'm on a strict gossip diet. No gossip websites, no gossip magazines. Otherwise, I find it paralyzing to exist.
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 guess I'm not that aware of such a big fan base. I have a few core people who write me no matter what I'm doing, but I hardly have sacks of mail being dropped on my door!
I've had a little bad, bad media luck the new year. Well, apparently I'm dating Bill Clinton, which makes me nervous. I didn't know, though.
