Kate Walsh Quotations

I don't need someone with a hot body. He can be fat or overweight and have a belly. It's very much about style and substance and humor, interest, curiosity and really being smart.

I've learned over and over that life happens on its own terms, not mine.

My very first job was a cashier at Burger King in Tucson, Arizona. And I occasionally worked the drive-thru. Id go wherever I was needed! My second job was at Dairy Queen. I stayed in the fast food royalty.

I've got four roommates and they all have fur and tails.

I second-guess myself all the time. I make a decision and then wonder if I made the wrong choice.

I think a lot of people just aren't aware how young you can be and be diagnosed with breast cancer.

You never want to rest on your laurels. You want to keep doing things that terrify you.

Sometimes I hope that through osmosis I might get a workout - just by wearing the clothes.

I don't like to take a lot of stuff since I'm really sensitive to medications.

I used to skip breakfast, but eating gets my metabolism going, so I burn more calories all day.

People always say you can't do a red lip if you have red hair but I've never shied away from it. I think you can absolutely do that. It's more about hair colour and complexion.

I drink tons of water. When you're puffy, you think you can't drink water since you feel more bloated and gross but that's what you do to get the toxins out of your system. I put a little lemon in the water bottle that I carry around with me or drink a cup of hot water with lemon. It's a natural diuretic.

My mom, she's a breast cancer survivor and because of that I had started getting mammograms once a year, starting at age 30.

Acting was all I ever really wanted to do.

Age is just a number. Unless, that is, you live in Hollywood, where there's this notion that if you haven't hit it big by your 20s, you may as well hit the road.

My mother is Italian and my dad's Irish. In my family, we're expressive. Nobody holds back.

I don't think anyone gets married thinking that they will get divorced.

I do Pilates, and hike with my dog.

I like to eat right and in moderation, but give myself treats and kind of have everything.

I try to cook dinner, but it's difficult when I'm working.

I'm not a clean freak. My house is a mess.

For me, my 20s were all about reaching for the brass ring of work in theater, television, and film, surviving in between by waiting tables, painting houses, serving coffee, and temping.

I find it very calming because she knows exactly what to do and exactly where we need to be and how much we need to see to make it look real.

Knitting and crocheting are huge trends right now and many of the latest fashions include knitted and crocheted items or trim. Designer Nicole Miller included a crochet-topped party dress in her latest line. So, grab a few balls of yarn, a needle or a hook and join the fun.

There are lots of different ways for women to be a mom in this culture.

What is harmful to kids is to give them a first-year teacher. That is absolutely the wrong thing you can do in terms of learning gains.

These days, knitting and crocheting clothing, accessories and home decor items is as much a sanity saver or a social outlet as they are a creative effort.

It's a balance. You have to ask yourself what is good for kids and how you keep adults' morale up.

I've got a crush on both of you. Maybe we can party.

I have very little optimism that the quality of the veteran teaching force is going to improve.

I've been working with Operation Smile for a number of years, and $240 changes and saves, in many cases, saves a child's life. But one of the things I'm super excited about is my partnership with Boston Market this holiday season and we've partnered up not only to help everybody out during the holidays because we know how crazy it gets.

I think it's also different when you're younger, too and your whole life is exposed. You know, it is probably exhausting and a little spiritually depleting, but you just find ways to fill up and do things For me it's simple things.

I think as much as we're cyber connecting it's really nice to just sit and talk, and have that ritual.

When everyone's kind of watching you when you're out and about, it makes it hard.

I love cooking but I still always go and sneak a little bit of sides from Boston Market, and it's so good. They're so good.

I have always been the girl who keeps on trying. I try! I try!

I think for Thanksgiving particularly I've always, one of the fun things for me about doing a big dinner is having friends and family so we've always done that, and even through our other holidays like having a mix of friends and family, and if you don't have your family nearby, or it's tough for you, find a friend and go and eat with them.

I'm lucky. I've got pretty good genes.

I've done every diet there is.

I feel so lucky that I've been on shows that have been by and large critically acclaimed and that audiences like it.

I still like to make crank calls.

When I cook, I mean when I'm working crazy hours I always do Sunday dinner and I'm not afraid to ask for help, whether it's from Boston Market or from my friends to bring a dish ... it's all about community and really connecting.

I loved campaigning for Obama.

Everything also calms down with the influx of social media, there's so much happening all the time.

No matter what job you do, we all have a much different life than our parents had. My parents' generation had one job and then they retired. Now, people have many different jobs.

I love to kind of people watch; that's part of what I do as an actor and creative person and sort of step back and watch others.

I would definitely love to be a parent.

I sort of watched everyone go through it on that show ["Grey's Anatomy" ] because I came on later in the first season, so I kind of watched everyone else go through it but really I am so grateful and blessed and feel I have had such a great career and I love that fans love the shows that I do, and so when I get approached I still, I go, "Oh, thank you. That makes me feel good."

Even when I lived in Chicago and I didn't have any family there, I would just go like I would be a guest and have dinner with a bunch of friends and do potluck or something. So I think that's it, just finding people that you love that love you and hang out with them.

I'm pregnant with triplets now and I feel really good.

I have a lot to be grateful for. I really do kind of get into the holiday spirit and try to find something to be grateful for anyway but this is the time of year so.

Despite all those years of abusing your lungs, your kidneys, your liver the only thing you've had removed is your kids.
