Growing up, I didn't know about the Japanese internment camps until I saw a movie of the week as an adult. I remember going, 'How come that wasn't covered in history class?' Moving to California, you run into people whose grandparents lost everything and their businesses and were put in these internment camps.

More Quotes by Adina Porter
A new thing I've been doing is just making sure I clear off my desk and try to only touch a piece of paper once, so I get the mail, open it up, deal with it then. My son's homework, or what I get from his teachers, the same way. That way, it's not nagging me, things to add to my to-do list.
I don't strive for balance. I just try to get through my to-do list, with my kids' homework being at the top of it, and then try to prepare for the next audition or whatever scene I'm shooting next. Balance.
My kids are resilient, I'm resilient, and I guess I am an optimist.
I read. It affects every decision that I make. Every dollar that I spend, every dollar that I make.
This whole thing about announcing stuff and sharing it online is a new phenomenon.
Less is more. You should wear earrings or bracelets, but not both.
I guess I'm a pretty curious person. I like doing new things. I like being challenged. I'm competitive. Trying to beat my personal best.
I'm a working actor, and I want to stay a working actor, and I want everybody happy.
One-liners that must land perfectly in just the right nanosecond can be terrifying.
Every once in a while, I'll have an acting role that allows me to look at something in my life and work it out.
