I really prefer acting in the theater the most. In some ways TV is closer to that because there's more of a regularity to the schedule. You have to finish an episode by a certain day. Movies can just go on interminably.

More quotes by Mary-Louise Parker
I put a lot of stock in the written word, and the power of it. That's what I love about acting and reading scripts. Words are really powerful. I don't believe that axiom at all - words can absolutely hurt you. Words can wound. They can do a lot of damage. I think they can do way more damage than sticks and stones. I'll take sticks and stones.

People ask me, 'Why are you doing a show on Showtime?' Because I'll do anything really, I don't really care, I'll do a show on Nickelodeon if I thought it was well written. Actually Nickelodeon's kind of awesome.

I always wondered what people thought of it because it looked so stupid to me on the page and I loved the other finale so I thought it was going to be really stupid but some people really liked it.

I'm naked in Esquire in August. I was naked on the set the other day. I'm always naked. I'm naked right now, in fact.
Mary-Louise Parker
I like to pretend that I'm a tough guy. It's kind of an admission of defeat if I have to ask for help - or even kindness. But if it doesn't come, at some point I snap and demand it.

My way to combat anything is just to walk straight into it with my fists up.
Mary-Louise Parker
I like A&E. I like those corny intimate-portrait things. They're so kind of ingenious and artificial and soothing.

I don't put myself out there, so people aren't necessarily familiar with me or my face.

I'm not saying pot is a bad thing. I know plenty of people who should be smoking pot. I'm just not one of those people. I don't think it would be the best drug for me. What am I going to do, start doing drugs at my age? It's a little late. I'm a mother of two. It's probably not the best idea for me to start getting into it now.
Mary-Louise Parker
I don't often see the movies I'm in I'm usually disappointed in myself and it only serves to make me self-conscious.
