Quotes

Kathryn: I think it's very unhealthy to get into a funky head space about food because it can really screw up your system forever. Wouldn't it be better if you could really enjoy what you want to eat and then have some fun exercise? (edit)
Kathryn: I would love to have a role that's so hard, it's scary. Like Cate Blanchett playing Katharine Hepburn. How terrifying, exhilarating and terrifying. I'd love to have opportunities like that. (edit)
Kathryn: I love comedy. I would love to do more of it. There have actually been so many close calls on me doing some straight-out black comedy and I’ve almost done some pretty substantial roles. I think comedy is much harder. But I think that if you have a really strong base in drama, then comedy is much more believable. Doing the work you do in drama, when you do a comedy it makes the comedy so much richer and so much more believable. I love both. (edit)
Kathryn: (on the "Xena" episode "Crusader") I was scared about the fighting, because I am not a large person. She's [Lucy Lawless] taller than me and she's been doing it so long and she's an expert. I just decided that we've all seen somebody like the kid in school that everybody pushes around... the small kid, if you get him mad, he goes ballistic. I decided it was more of my character's internal rage that would compensate. (edit)
Kathryn: I feel so fortunate. It’s incredible to have an audience so devoted and loyal. Cold Case is on all over the world. I get letters from girls and young women in Germany, Slovenia, Paris. (edit)

She deserves a ten for coming to our crappy little awards show, let alone being the star of the night!
