"Fans just freak out about Sonny and Brenda being apart. I get a lot of people who say they love watching Brenda and Jax together, but they say, 'Have fun with him for now.' They're Sonny and Brenda freaks."

"It's unexplainable sometimes why two people are meant to be together, why they capture each other's hearts."

"I think that Sonny is the love of her life and always will be. I don't think she will ever love anyone like she loved Sonny. True love is desperate. Brenda and Sonny are like Romeo and Juliet to me. I used to love our scenes, because we had realistic arguements and realistic fears, and we were really loving to each other. We worked through stuff together and we argued; that was healthy. The fact that he lied about what he was involved in was the big problem for them, but I think lots of great relationships have problems because someone wasn't honest about something."

"Nobody in Port Charles wanted Sonny and Brenda to be together, so that's where I think the audience locked in and said 'Nobody wants them, but we do.'"

"Everyone likes to watch a car wreck. I mean, you've got two very disfunctional people who deep down, in a way, are like Lucy and Desi. They truly, deeply love each other but can't be with each other- but you still want to watch them try. That's the appeal. They're always fighting with each other. He's never hit her, but they're always yelling. And that gets your attention as it does in real life. If that couple right there (he points to a near-by table) are just quietly having a meal, we don't notice them. But if they start having a fight, we'd all be gawking."
