Joseph Pulitzer Quotes

I don't really have an average week, and because I travel so much with my job, it means I don't always have a typical weekend, either.

I'm not a 9-to-5 woman who has the same kind of lifestyle for years on end. I couldn't do it.

So I don't have a normal, regimented schedule at all, but on a normal day, I'd say I wake up around 10 A.M.

The roughest part of that lifestyle is the travel and early mornings.

I usually doze off between 7:30 and 9 p.m. while putting my baby to sleep. Then I suddenly wake up remembering I'm an adult with no bedtime. I spend the next four hours catching up on reading, e-mails, and other adult pursuits until I collapse for good until sunrise.

Oh God, I'm going to get in trouble for saying this, but I grew up falling asleep in church because I was tired from watching horror movies late at night.

I'm shocked at how early everything closes here. But people start earlier. I miss the late nightlife in NYC, but then again I sing and burn so much energy in the show that it's probably good - I get to go home and sleep.

Never drink black coffee at lunch; it will keep you awake all afternoon.

Acting is rare. You can be rehearsing Ibsen with Sir Richard Eyre and suddenly he has to take a call on his mobile telling him his friend Arthur Miller has died. Or you can come back from a job on the Isle of Man to be told by your agent you're going straight out to South Africa on another shoot. There's not even any time to wash your pants.
