As a young performer, I didn't know that you can have a great time playing someone in terrible crisis. The more you know it's not real, the deeper you can go into it. And the easier it is to let it go when it's done.

Claire Danes
Every three seconds in the developing world, a child dies needlessly due to lack of basic health care and other things we all take for granted.
Claire Danes
There's certainly something very uncomfortable about the voyeurism involved in being in the press, being an actor, where people have a seemingly insatiable curiosity about, you.
Claire Danes
I used to talk about my personal life all the time. It's the most fun thing to talk about, the people in my life are hurt.
Claire Danes
It's been a huge joy, this experience of being a mom ... I don't know how to articulate it yet, because it is so fresh.
Claire Danes
I don't know any celebrated people that register in a big way who aren't unique.
Claire Danes
I do know how to fire a machine gun, so be warned! I'm trained!
Claire Danes
There is real honor in being a total goofball
Claire Danes
I have a huge, active imagination, and I think I'm really scared of being alone because if I'm left to my own devices, I'll just turn into a madwoman.
Claire Danes
