    • Jodie Sweetin: (about watching herself on TV when she was a child) I didn't really watch a lot of television when I was younger. I still really don't. I'm kind of a bookworm. But yeah, I knew I had a job, and that was kind of...I knew what I did. It was fun, and it was never...you know, really, there were times that, you know, it was hard, and it was, you know, "I don't want to do this, I want to just, you know, be a regular kid and play Barbies", but nine times out of ten, I wanted to be there, and I enjoyed it. I loved what I did. I was surrounded by great people. My mom was there with me every day.
    • Jodie Sweetin: I had some choice words written on my locker at school, um, and I remember, like, somebody planted pot in my locker, like, in eighth grade, to get me in trouble. And you know, it was funny, because at that point, I hadn't done any drugs, so I was appalled. Had it been, like, two years later, I probably would have smoked it before they ever found it!
    • Jodie Sweetin: I actually get that a lot. You know, people come up to me, they're like, "You haven't changed" [since "Full House"], you know. Well, like, from the neck up, basically.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (on ex-husband Cody Herpin's comments in 2009 about her drug addictions and poor parenting skills) I cannot and do not have time to answer each one of those allegations. It is unfortunate that Cody has to go the route of making up stories because he is so hurt. At this time, all I can do is pray for him, as he is the father of my beautiful child.
    • Jodie Sweetin: I get recognized all the time, although people are like, "Oh my God, you aren't, like, 11 anymore!" It's funny. People don't expect you to grow up.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about having more children after she lost the baby weight from her first child) We want another one, yes, but not until Zoie is four, because that's how far apart we'd like them to be in age. It would be great to try for a boy, but just one more, and that's it. Then I'll exercise again and do the same thing, but during the pregnancy, it's back to eating salmon paninis and chicken pot pies! I'm really looking forward to that, actually. I'll have one more chance to eat whatever I want. There's definitely pressure to be thin in Hollywood. It's gotten really ridiculous.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about her "Full House" siblings) They were like pseudo-siblings. I totally looked up to Candace [Cameron]; I thought she was the coolest. And I played with Mary-Kate and Ashley [Olsen]. I haven't seen them in a while, but I wish them nothing but the best.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (About baby daughter, Zoie) I can't wait to hear what her little voice sounds like!
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about going to different college campuses to share her meth addiction story) I could have dodged the subject, but I thought, "Maybe I have an opportunity here." The students I've talked with grew up watching Full House, and many of them have been through it or have family members who did, so I'm very grateful.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about "Full House") We have all the DVD's! For a kid who loves to perform, cracking a joke and having a whole soundstage full of laughter was the best thing. I look back on the episodes where I was 5 or 6, and I can see myself laughing at my own jokes!
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about her "Full House" days) I went to public school, and kids thought it was funny to throw something at the girl from Full House. Middle school is hard enough!
    • Jodie Sweetin: Everything revolved around my [meth] addiction. On a typical day, I'd wake up and feel terrible because I hadn't done any. You're either trying to get it, doing it, or worrying about when you're going to get it next. You don't even realize that it's taken over so quickly. My parents lived pretty close, but I'd go for weeks without speaking to them. I didn't want anybody around. My husband had no idea. It was the elephant in the room. Something was wrong, but it wasn't talked about. I'm very blessed and lucky to have made it to the other side. A lot of people don't come through this in one piece. I can't believe how different my life is now.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about her second husband) Cody is my best friend. I married my best friend, and I couldn't ask for anything more. He's an unbelievable person.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about her husband during her pregnancy) He goes and gets me all my little cravings, like my frozen chicken pot pies, and he cooks dinner for me and cleans up the house because I'm exhausted all the time. I'm like, "I need a nap!" He's really good about that.
    • Jodie Sweetin: I can't wait to be a mom. I think I'm ready. It's weird, though, because I don't think you're ever fully prepared to be a parent, but I'm excited for sure. As for cravings, nothing weird. No pickles and ice cream or anything like that. I've heard of women craving dirt, but none of that for me. I'm pretty normal.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about her hopes for her baby) I had to learn to just be comfortable in my own skin, so I hope she'll learn that a little bit sooner, to just be yourself. That was probably the hardest thing for me that I didn't learn until I was in my early twenties.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (in 2008, about her unborn baby daughter) We're not naming her after any fruits or electronic devices or anything like that. She's going to have a fairly normal name. We want something different. Something cute and girly, but not too girly--a little funky.
    • Jodie Sweetin: There are a lot of pressures and a lot of different things that sort of come with being a child star and growing up in this business that normal kids don`t have to deal with. And it does create certain issues. But, you know, I feel really fortunate that I`ve been able to come through to the other side and really learn how to deal with those things, and possibly get another career started again. I'm really lucky.
    • Jodie Sweetin: (about starring in "Full House") It was fun for me. It was a lot of fun for me, as a little kid, growing up with Bob [Saget] and, you know, Dave [Coulier] and John [Stamos] too. All these people were just fun, so I was having a great time. It wasn't work for me, it was fun.
    • Jodie: I want to make movies, TV series, wherever the career takes me. I really hope this isn't the last people hear of me. In fact, I would like to make this a footnote in my career, not the end.
    • Jodie: It is kind of hard to figure out who you are when you've lost your job at age 13, when that was basically how you identified yourself.
    • Jodie: We all get along really well and we all are the best of friends. They really did become my other family and my group of friends." - about the close relationship between the cast mates of "Full House"
    • Jodie Sweetin: Sometimes when someone recognizes me, they are like, "You're alive!" I don't know why people thought I died. I guess that happens when you make a life for yourself outside of Hollywood.
    • Jodie Sweetin: I don't have any desire to ever act again full time. I don't mind doing occasional guest appearances on shows, but I have other things I'd like to do in my life now. I would like to get into teaching actors and starting a family.
    • Jodie: The competition is so fierce once you become an adult. I'll probably move on to something else.
