Zitat des Tages von Maura Tierney:
I get really nervous, really anxious.
I'm sure my desire to perform came, in part, from being around politics as a kid. My dad had a big personality, and a lot of the people involved in Boston politics have big personalities, so there were all kinds of wacky people around.
I was a dance major at NYU, but it wasn't working out. I had friends in the drama department, so I switched.
Poaching is a very complicated, multi-layered problem.
I was on network TV for about 15 years or so, which I loved.
My answer to a lot of things is to go to work. That's not everybody's answer.
What I look for in theater, I really like new work, and I really like the concept of age not necessarily being a defining aspect of who you are or how you act.
You can't just take care of everybody else all the time.
I felt intimidated the entire time I was in school by my teachers and classmates. But I just knew acting was something I wanted to do.
I don't have much patience with sick people.
In a man, I like funny guys. A guy who doesn't have a lot of therapy, who's mature. A man, not a boy.
I tend to focus on what I'm doing at the moment, and that takes up the entire span of my focus.
Everyone in my family has seen me cry before.
I went to 'Godspell' when I was 10 - my mother took me, and that was the first play I ever saw. That was it for me.
I sold muffler parts over the phone when I was a teenager.
I've been misquoted a lot, and there's this tendency for people to put on to you how they think you should be or what they think you should feel.
I'm not really the nurturer type.
Unfortunately in life, justice is not always achieved.
