- CCH Pounder: (answering what would you be doing if acting hadn't panned out?) A gardener. ... I grew up in England, and gardening was sort of part of my growing up. ... It's very peaceful, and I think it's as entertaining as acting in terms of a final product. If you came and saw my yard, you would know what I mean.

- CCH Pounder: When it's this massive disease, and it's affecting things in five thousand different ways, it requires great strength and power--and there is power in numbers. So we need to involve as many people as we can, like we do with ANSA. I call it my little engine that could. It is a remarkable, tiny organization with a huge outreach. We use actors and artists with the biggest voices so they can use every opportunity to talk about AIDS.

- CCH Pounder: Characters are like putting on a coat. You put the coat on while you work, you take the coat off after it's over.
