"When I met her, I just was so attracted to her and just wanted to be around her, but I was in a different stage. The scared stage. I was on "Ally McBeal", and I couldn't imagine living as an openly gay woman. And to be with Ellen meant that I would have to overcome a lot of my fears. So a few years passed, and I wasn't going to let that opportunity pass me by again. She's everything to me."UpdateDelete
- Portia de Rossi 08/2008
"I think until you're married, you don't know. You can have a commmitment in your heart, but there's something about getting married."UpdateDelete

- Ellen DeGeneres 12/2008
On the passage of Proposition 8, banning same-sex marriages: "I have very strong hope and faith that it will turn around. I don't think people will really get what this is about...When they do, it'll switch around."UpdateDelete
- Ellen DeGeneres 1/2009
"We have our anniversary of when we first got together, then Christmas, her birthday, my birthday, and Valentine's Day. So by the end of that whole thing, we're exhausted."UpdateDelete
- Portia de Rossi 2/2009
"[Having a child is] something we would never take lightly. It's a lot of work and we realize that."UpdateDelete
- Ellen DeGeneres 2/2009
"There are times when I think I'd be really selfish not to adopt a child. It'd be great to spend our lives with somebody, a little child that really needs a home."UpdateDelete
- Portia de Rossi 2007
"People always ask me if it's different kissing a guy than a girl, and I have to say that it is, because of the beard burn. My God! That really hurts...I'm not advocating any particular lifestyle, but I'm just saying: When Ellen and I make out, there's no pain involved."UpdateDelete
- Portia de Rossi 3/2009
"I honestly don't know how to make Ellen laugh, but I end up doing it anyway. At least three, four times a day, she'll just stop and laugh at me. I hope that's a good thing. I always just put it down to the fact that I'm Australian and I speak funny."UpdateDelete
