I'm not a sun person.

I don't like wearing '70s clothes at all.

I'm a Jersey girl and proud of it.

When people meet me, they think I'm going to be outgoing, but I like things low- key. I don't like people to think I'm bragging.

Even in real life, I'd rather hang out with guys.

[on an acting role] I'm the tomboy so I got to be a little butch.

I never wear makeup. When I wear makeup on the show I take it off as soon as I can. I just like the au natural thing.

So when I first got into Scientology, I did 'Personal Values' and 'Integrity' and then 'Overcoming Ups and Downs in Life'. These courses touched on the observations I was aware of when I was younger. It was right there in black and white. It was amazing, and I felt that finally something was speaking my language. It totally connected with me. Pretty soon after that I got onto the 'Purification Rundown', and I started moving up the Bridge. [Scientology's Celebrity Magazine, 2015] Show less «

It's not that I really hate the clothes, I just don't like all the polyester. And the bell-bottoms-the big ones-are pretty bad. Some of the stuff that Wilmer wears is bad. And Debra Jo [Rupp, who plays Kitty Forman]. But, I swear, they're turning Donna into Annie Hall this season. More ties. More suits. But they're also keeping her really motivated, ya know? Like, wanting to be a rock journalist. Wanting to be the first woman president. Show less «

My family was very unorthodox. My mother was very eccentric and amazing. She always treated us like adults. She trusted us to have a head on our shoulders, and thank God she did. Show less «

I get to wake up and do what I love every day and I don't take that for granted. I feel grateful for it everyday.

There's nothing you could say that would shock me.

I know that when you take care of yourself and are happy and healthy, you are better for those around you and your environment. I also know that many ailments can be healed with food by nourishing your body instead of taking drugs. Show less «

A lot of things inspire me. When I see a beautiful piece of art, it inspires me to be creative. When I see an amazing play or movie, it inspires me as an actress and a filmmaker. I recently saw Annette Bening in Ruth Draper's Monologues. Her performance blew me away. She completely inspired me as an actress. Also, eating healthy and taking care of my body and my mind really make me come alive, and seeing others doing that inspires me to stay with it. I always feel great when I do. Show less «

There's a much bigger picture we're all striving for. To sweat the small stuff just stresses you out for no reason.

The worst diets are the ones that restrict your calories too much and try to trick your body. You have no energy, and it's ridiculous.

When I'm working, it's next to impossible. I like to think I'll just be walking down the street one day and stop and meet someone, like, Oh my god, you're awesome, and then we start dating. But, no. [Laughs]. Show less «
