Quotes

Calista: (on the WGA strike) It was a mixed blessing for me to have a little bit of a break, but I am very happy that we are all back and up and running. (edit)
Calista (on what attracted her to Brothers and Sisters): Well, primarily it was the script. I loved the complexity of the relationships between the siblings and the complexity of my relationship with my mother, and that really appealed to me. If the script hadn't come along, I probably would still not be working. (edit)
Calista: We had a little walk around. We went to the zoo and it was wonderful. (edit)
Calista: Just the whole idea of what drives people to violence and if we know about it maybe we can prevent it. It's interesting. And these people live among us. (edit)
Calista: So people think I'm lying about my age all the time? It's the records that are wrong. I've never told anyone how old I am. The minute they ask me, I say 'That's none of your business.' So that means I've never once lied about my age. Now that's true! (edit)
