“Superwoman is motivated by power and money and sex, and sex and money and power. Who can't relate to that?”

“The older I get, I just don't know. But, there is absolutely that part of me that watches action shows and goes, 'I can still do that. I can still roll with that. I stay in shape. I keep it together. I stay strong.'”

“Eddie Redmayne is fantastic.”

“I certainly came up in an era where women were really making strides and making a point to beat down doors and find their place and crash through the glass ceiling.”

“The future has both gritty and savage and clean and 'techno-hip.' I think it's a very realistic point of view.”

“Superwoman is one of those superheroes that knows her power and is very comfortable in her power.”

“My hope for my daughter is that she has the courage to at least try to do it all, to be kind to herself when it all doesn't come together perfectly, and to follow her dreams.”

“What I love about superheroes, and Superwoman in particular, is that in that comics world, they're all curvaceous. They're strong.”

“Unfortunately, being a woman in society means that sometimes you have to sort of quell what is instinctually broad and magnificent and magical about you.”

“Don't count Jessica out on 'Suits,' 'cause those boys are going to mess up, and they're going to have to call me. I believe that. I don't know when, I don't know how, but that story's not done, 'cause everybody comes back.”

“It's important to have strong images of women out there, women who aren't afraid of expressing themselves, women who aren't afraid of taking chances, women who aren't afraid of their own power.”

“My view of myself doesn't change. I know who I am. I'm Cuban American; both my parents are Cuban - one was a little browner than the other one. That's who I am. I feel sorry that it's taken so long for the film industry to figure it out and to catch up.”

“I'm a lover and a fighter.”

“I don't tweet - I have nothing to say.”

“I love doing the nighttime soap, the emotional, psychological, hard stuff that I got to tackle on 'Hannibal.'”

“I think the public doesn't understand the rigors of shooting a show for an actor, much less when you're on location and away from home.”

“Life is about choices, and the grace - or lack thereof - with which you execute them is a make-or-break moment in anyone's life.”

“I have been very, very fortunate on this show, on 'Suits,' where the writers do come to me, and they ask my comfort level and, if they want to push an envelope in a certain direction, if I'm okay with that. And, by and large, I am. I think it's important.”

“You have Showtime, you have AMC, you have all of these, you know, incredible networks that are now bringing forth their product without the handcuffs, if you will, of trying to sell soap to the entire country.”

“I love the chess game that I do on 'Suits.' I just love every bit of it and that I get to do it.”
