I'm Not Someone Who Ever Enjoys Violence

I Was Sitting In The Looping Studio Late One Night, And I Had This Epiphany That They Weren't Paying Me For My Acting, For God's Sake, But To Own Me. And From Then On, It Became Clear And An Awful Lot Easier To Deal With.

Xena And Gabrielle Were A Couple...in The End, It Was If Not Explicitly Said, It Was Implicit That...yeah, They Totally Were.

I've Tried To Divide My Time Between The Us And New Zealand, But It's Difficult, And I Suddenly Realized That I Like Acting Here In Los Angeles Anyway. Because When You First Come Here; Especially From New Zealand, You Go, This Is The Ugliest, Nastiest, Grayest, Smoggiest Town In The World, And Then Your Scale Of Beauty Adjusts And Suddenly You Think, Oh, Isn't It Beautiful, Not Too Much Smog Today!

Growing Up, I Looked Up To Real Women. I Didn't Go In For Hero Worship And I Still Don't. Everybody Has Feet Of Clay.

Very Often, I'm Part Of The Deception Because The Way I Play Things Is That I Want You To Be Able To Look Back And Go, "oh, My God, I Didn't See That At The Time, But Now It All Makes Sense," And You Want To Watch It A Second Time With The Benefit Of Hindsight.
