ADD QUOTES
- Jenna: Scientology is going nowhere. I will tell you that right now, because it works and so many people are helped by it. The people who have been helped aren't going anywhere because they know it's true for them.
  Edit Share Hide
- Jenna: I was raised well enough to have an appreciation of myself and know that you have to be well-rested and well-fed to get anything done.
  Edit Share Hide
- Jenna: I was raised Catholic and went to Catholic school and I married a Jew so I have both sides. I don't joke and degrade about religions, and I don't appreciate other people doing it, either.
