I wanted to be in the theater. It is simply the way I felt.

I studied theater in college, and I really wanted to be an actress and play a lot of different roles. Then I made landing on a television comedy my main focus.

I first wanted to be an actress after seeing a play - not a movie.

I thought I was going to be a theater actor. I moved to New York after college and did some plays and worked a lot. Once the realities of living as a theatrical actor hit me, I realized I wanted to start making a little bit of money and not have to bartend and work in theater.

All I wanted was to be a regional-theater actor, to be in a company. I thought it would be a great life. I don't think I understood how difficult it would be.

I grew up in Manhattan and, since my father was a playwright, all I ever wanted to be was a stage actress.

I always wanted to be an actress. I couldn't imagine being anything else.

I made theater very important in the beginning of my career.

When I was at drama school I wanted to do classical theatre. It just so happened that I did a film when I came out and I moved that way.

I had been nine years in the theatre and hadn't had massive success. My only thing was I wanted to be an actor and I didn't care when, where, or how much for.
