- [when asked how easy or hard was it to say, "I really don't want to act anymore"] It was pretty easy. It was actually becoming something that didn't fit into my life anymore. I still love acting, but I don't like that life anymore. I can't.
- [on how she enjoyed being reunited with her Star Trek: Voyager (1995) co-stars, on stage, at 2010 Official Star Trek Las Vegas Convention] It was great to see everyone again and feel that way again. It just felt good. They're all great people and that's something that will never happen again to me, being with that sort of group of people. That was truly incredible and special for me.
