“I think Chris' favorite role was in 'Remains of the Day,' which was the Merchant Ivory film that he shot not long before his accident, a couple years before. He loved working with Merchant Ivory.”

“Sacrifice always seems to imply a bitterness attached to it. But I don't feel bitter about the choices I've made. Yes, I sacrifice a job because I made certain family decisions, but I don't regret it.”

“With grief, you know, the only way to get through it is through it.”

“I'm a big girl. I prioritize. I want to be acting, I want to be singing, but there will be time for that.”

“I would like to record. I would like to do some cabaret acts.”

“Mv mother was so literate and literary.”

“I am working as a co-host on a show called, 'Lifetime Live.' It's on the Lifetime cable network. My co-host is Deborah Roberts. She's a news correspondent with 20/20. We are billed as a news and information show. It's fun.”

“I thought, if I was going to date an actor, I wanted a real actor.”

“As a caregiver, I always thought I had empathy for Chris's situation, and certainly one family member's disability affects the whole family dynamic in myriad ways. But as I go through various tests and discomforts and uncertainty about the future that cancer can bring, I feel a strong, visceral connection to what Chris went through.”

“Chris didn't only leave a legacy of work. He left a legacy of love.”

“Hope is a real thing. It's not pie in the sky.”

“Christopher believed that to overcome any adversity, no matter how challenging, you need to go forward each day with strength, determination and compassion.”

“I'm a very famous wife but I'm still plodding along in my career.”

“Your emotional state has a tremendous amount to do with sickness, health and well-being. For years, my husband and I lived on -- and because of -- hope. Hope continues to give me the mental strength to carry on.”

“Chris and I used to say, when he had his accident, 'Well, this is probably the worst thing that's ever happened to either one of us, but at least we had each other to go through it with.'”

“I get little moments all the time, all I want to do is call my mom.”

“The public knows me through my life, which is not comical. But I feel very at home in comedy.”

“In the mornings I drop my son off at school and then head to work. I am done at work by 2:00 P. M. and can head home.”

“Chris, boy, was he ever resilient, and was he ever someone who would never give up and had tremendous discipline, and he set goals and met them.”

“I took the marriage vows very seriously, as did Chris. You're there - sickness, health - I mean, really. And you don't take those vows until you can say it and mean it.”
