"And I started as a journalism major at Ohio State, ended up in theater and I love to read." — Patricia Heaton

As a child, I would put on shows in my neighborhood with friends and perform Barbra Streisand songs for my classmates.

My husband is always telling me I need to do less, do less, do less. But I feel like if I'm not being productive, I have a hard time relaxing and enjoying myself.

There's enough hard stuff going on in people's lives, and you really need that joy that laughter can bring. I don't have to put that in a Christian compartment.

I always know I'm going to lose my job. It's either going to be canceled next week or next year or nine years from now, but I always know my job is going to go.
