Biography of Kristin Davis
So it was good for me to play a likable person and it was just an amazing situation to be in.
Tags: Amazing, Good, SituationSometimes, when you're acting, you are so in the moment that you don't even remember what just happened.
Tags: Moment, Remember, SometimesWhere I come from, a lot of people didn't have money, but they didn't have gangs or drugs either.
Tags: Either, Gangs, MoneyAlcoholism is a genetically predisposed disease and it does run in my family. I also think I felt like a misfit. I was in the South, everybody was blonde. I just didn't feel like I fitted in. It was sort of my way of fitting.
Tags: Everybody, Family, RunAlso, it was a cultural moment that wasn't being represented in terms of women who were successful and had choices they didn't have before. They needed a show that they can watch that they felt like represented them.
Tags: Moment, Successful, WomenAt one point, they offered me this part to play a drug-dealing, gun-selling butch lady. I don't know how to describe her but she had like a crew cut and stuff. I was like, 'Is this a joke?' And they said, 'No, we think it would be great because everyone would be like, 'Oh, look at what we've done to Charlotte.' I was like, 'Well I can't do that!'
Tags: Done, Great, SaidEveryone would talk about their diets and working out and what it made me do was go to craft services where all the food for the cast and crew was and I would eat.
Tags: Food, Talk, WorkingI think I can speak for all four of us on the show here. We all consider ourselves to be feminists and we get very upset when people don't think we are. We're like, where did this come from? Of course we are.
Tags: Here, Show, SpeakI would never describe Charlotte as a prude - maybe at the start, but that was in comparison to the other girls. She wasn't willing to do the stuff they were doing - and I mean, thank goodness!
Tags: Mean, She, StartI'm not really much of a shopper. I have to say that I'd definitely prefer good sex. What makes good sex? Oh my god. I think you need to feel free and you have to really trust the other person. And you have to have that strange, mysterious chemical connection.
Tags: God, Good, TrustOur mothers' generation fought so hard to change things and we're the first generation to benefit. And now you get girls in their twenties who say they're not feminists.
Tags: Change, Hard, MothersPersonally, I don't think we could do such a show if we didn't get along. The subtext of all this is that we're women in a show so we can't possibly get along. It's not like they write about The Sopranos like that.
Tags: Show, Women, WriteThe Carrie in the plot was too much like the Carrie in the book. She smoked, she swore a lot, she was very hard, very cynical. I could never have pulled it off.
Tags: Book, Hard, OffWe all get so caught up in our day-to-day lives and have so many gripes. But when you see the way others live and how they make the best of it, you'll realize how lucky you are.
Tags: Best, Lives, OthersIt's nice to be with someone, but I don't think you need to be in a relationship to feel complete. That would be really sad.
Tags: Nice, Relationship, SadI just loved being in the theatre with all those crazy, creative people.
Tags: Crazy, Creative, LovedSometimes it would be nice to just have some red wine with dinner, but it's not worth the risk. I have a great life, a great situation. Why would I want to risk self-destructive behaviour?
Tags: Great, Life, NiceThis is going to sound strange, but I really didn't think I would pass 30. I don't know why or whatever, I just didn't. That's a very weird thing to say, I'm sorry. I don't know. Maybe it's because I was drinking so much as a youth.
Tags: Sorry, Strange, WhyWe were very rich culturally. One Sunday each month, we would do this thing called Chamber Pots at somebody's house. A classical music group would come over and we'd have dinner. There were thirty people - parents and kids - and we'd sit on the floor and listen to this beautiful music.

I drank a lot when I was a teenager and I don't drink any more, because that's when I thought, you know, I'm gonna end up a car wreck.
Tags: Car, End, ThoughtI like green or brown eyes. Tall but not overwhelmingly so. I like men who do yoga and meditate.
Tags: Eyes, Green, MenI love animals and I love to see movies with animals that are done respectfully, you know?
Tags: Done, Love, MoviesI probably believe in God in a non-denominational way.
Tags: GodI was very poor and I was a waitress, and it's hard to be a poor waitress in New York.
Tags: Hard, Poor, YorkI'd wanted to be an actress my whole life, that was my goal, that was all I cared about.
Tags: Goal, Life, WantedI'm having a great career, though I think I'm not as good as your little scenario makes me out to be.
Tags: Career, Good, GreatI'm not about to go out and buy a snake for a pet. I mean, I may have faced a few fears but I'm not insane.
Tags: May, Mean, PetIf I was going to do anything, I'd be a producer, only because I'd like to have a say in what gets made and what doesn't.
