Calista Flockhart quotes about
But I don't like to, tell people how old I am. I like that to be a mystery.
On her extreme thinness during her 'Ally McBeal' years: "I started under-eating, over-exercising, pushing myself too hard and brutalizing my immune system. I guess I just didn't find time to eat. I am much more healthy these days.
I would like to take this opportunity [on Letterman] just to tell the press to KISS MY SKINNY WHITE ASS!
Actually, I take it as a compliment. Diva is a derivative of divine. That's quite a title to carry around.
Just remember, when you're with me you're not the strangest person in the room. Go ahead, get weird on me.
A lot of the tabloid stories are written so well, they're very clever and very funny. But you have to focus on what's really important and not read them - don't dive into it and don't get caught up in it.
It's so funny how my name has always been such a big deal. When I was growing up, my family was always moving. I had to meet new people all the time. And they'd laugh.
I think, on a frame like mine, if I lose a few pounds, it makes a big difference. I hated every bit of attention on my weight and size. Even now, I can't put into words what exactly happened.
I'm not particularly pre-occupied with the husband / baby thing. Besides I have a dog.
I embrace everything about Ally... I don't particularly see her as a whiner. One week she's tough, the next she's really weak. I love that. She's human.
I am definitely a dog person. I feel like Webster and I are very much alike.
The only real indulgence was buying a house. That was a pretty big step.
Webster and I are very aloof. The two of us go and sit there by ourselves. I sit by myself in the corner with my book and the newspaper. He kind of runs around a little bit, and then he goes and sits on top of the picnic table. He never plays with other little dogs.
Shows can come and go. They can be a hit and then in three years, gone. There's some comfort in having the stability of a job and having children. It's a double-edged sword.
