Mariska Hargitay

Of course everyone says they hate baby talk, but mine was not annoying.

I look at all the things life has allowed me to do, and I feel like the luckiest person in the world.

I am grateful that I didn't let fear get the best of me. It only holds you back from possibilities and greatness.

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

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
