“My theatre background is probably more extensive then my film, and I have done a fair bit of television.”

“'Scandal' is a huge hit. I'm happy for them, but it was never a really good fit for me.”

“When I was filming 'Lost,' we'd be in the jungle. The only thing we had to contend with was the sound of the ocean. That was it, really.”

“When I'm acting, I've always got to make it make sense to me why I do anything. Whether it's right or wrong, I've just got to believe this is the reason why I am doing this and just go with it.”

“'Lost' was filmed in Hawaii, so we stayed there and loved it, so we thought, 'Why would we leave?' It is a bit like growing up in a bubble, but I don't think that's a bad thing, as you will eventually get out and see the real world.”

“Coming off a show like 'Lost,' there were other offers, but it was difficult to get excited about anything because 'Lost' was such a great piece of writing and such a hit show.”

“The viewing figures for 'Lost' were huge. I don't think the viewing figures for 'The 100' are up there with 'Lost'; hopefully, they will be.”

“In film, I think that you do have a little more time to invest in the character compared to television, where you are shooting from the hip and making quick choices. It is the speed of things that is the major difference - certainly in my experience.”

“Hawaii is a beautiful place to bring up a family.”

“I love Terry O'Quinn. He's a wonderful guy, wonderful actor.”

“With television, I worked on 'Lost,' where you'd just put your faith in the writers and go with what they're writing.”

“I feel like I'm part of television history.”

“I think any parent, at some time or other, has thoughts of their child dying. That's probably one of the worst things that could ever happen to a parent.”

“I mean, I do wear a wedding ring and take it off when I shoot.”

“In an ideal world, I'd love to work on something that is on par with 'Lost' or better than 'Lost.'”

“'Not Another Happy Ending' is a romantic comedy starring Karen Gillan and Stanley Weber. It is about these two characters and their relationships.”

“I like thinking about what could be out there, and I love the questions that sci-fi poses.”

“I'd imagine if there were more Scottish people making Scottish movies about Scotland, it would not only be educational, but it would instill a sense of pride.”

“I love the sci-fi world and the way it makes me start to question things.”

“I love working in TV. TV is fast. You shoot it, and it's done quickly.”
