Katherine Heigl

My mother is a great source of advice and wisdom and consolation for me.

I think that everybody has a right to their own thoughts, their own feelings and their own private moments, if they want them.

Kids are a huge sacrifice; they change everything - but I'm ready to work for things of greater importance than going out to meet someone for dinner at 10 o'clock at night.

For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long than too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.

I generally don't follow domestic news that much aside from how it relates to the stories I'm covering abroad, like what Americans think of the War in Afghanistan.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.
