I REALLY Love NATURE. I Grew Up In The COUNTRY. But One Of The Things About Nature Is That It Is BEAUTIFUL But It's Also Very Dangerous.

Most Of My Friends - When I Was Five, Six, Seven Years OLD - Their Dads Were Working In An Auto Plant In Detroit Until 5:30, And Then They Were Sat In Rush Hour. They Weren't Around As MUCH. My DAD FINISHED At Three O'clock, So He Was Just Around More.

You Shouldn't FEEL Guilty About Taking Time For Yourself. Every So OFTEN, Everyone Needs To Give Themselves A Big Ol' Bear Hug And TREAT Themselves To Some TLC.

Before I Had My CHILD, I Thought I Knew All The Boundaries Of Myself, That I Understood The LIMITS Of My Heart. It's EXTRAORDINARY To Have All Those Limits Thrown Out, To Realize Your Love Is Inexhaustible.

Picking Apart A Story For Its Scientific Underpinnings Doesn't Diminish It, It Enhances It, Makes US Dream Of The Possibilities It Proposes. I Think Appreciating The Magic Of Reality, Going From 'can't HAPPEN' To 'could Happen,' Is The FUNDAMENTAL APPEAL Of Science FICTION.

When I Was Sent To Public School, I Was Relieved That I COULD WEAR What I WANTED To Wear.

As A Kid, We Had One TELEVISION Channel And A Sad Little Roller Rink. And There Was Not Much Else To Do. So I Used My IMAGINATION All Of The Time Growing Up. That's The Main Way I Played. When We Moved And I Went To High School, I Did My First Play, And I Was Completely Addicted To THEATRE. It Felt LIKE HOME; It Felt Natural.

I Don't Have The PRESSURE Of Being A World-famous BOMBSHELL That Has Detonated.

My Parents Worked HARDER Than ANYONE I Have Ever Met. They Had So Many BUSINESSES. There Was The Motel, But Throughout My Childhood, They Also Had A Drive-through Dairy, A Gas Station, A CLOTHING Store, A COMPUTER Reselling Business.

I Have A Surfboard That Says 'Linda HUNT Choice TV Actress: Action.' I Am An Action STAR! I Don't KNOW What That Is About, But I Like It.
