On her career: “There is sexism – I’m not denying its existence.  But I’m saying that I will deny its effort against me.  I just pay it no nevermind and say, ‘Get out of my way.’” 

On getting to curse as much as she wants for Veep: “Once, when we were trying to come up with the particular perfect, horrible, swear-y thing to say in Veep, I said, ‘You do realize that if we were 12, we would get in big trouble for this conversation.’  That was not part of the curriculum in high school, and the fact that it is now a part of the curriculum of my life is a pleasure, which is the understatement of the universe.” 

On rumors that she is a billionaire: “I’ve been attached to that.  It’s unbelievable, because whatever I do, people just assume it’s true.  Welcome to the f–kin’ Internet.”
