On catching the acting bug as a child while watching the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall:
“Afterward, I stood up and said, ‘That’s what I want to be. They’re alive. That’s what I want to do.’ … [But] I was very sad and introverted as a child, and I would never, ever have had the confidence or the extroverted nature to be in a school play.”

On having one piece of advice for Meredith:
“Just move on. There are plenty of fish in the sea.”

“When I did the pilot, I thought, ‘I can’t stand medical shows. This will never get on.’”
