As You Get Older, You Choose Friends Based On Not Only What Feels Resonant And Warm But If They're Bringing Something To Your Life. My Women Friends Are Incredibly Intelligent.

My One Light American Spirit That I Smoke Once A Week, On Saturday Night.

It's The Difference Between Someone Who Loves You More Than Anything In The World Giving You Criticism And Getting It From Some Bitter Stranger On The Internet.

The Reason I Can Be 38 And Have Two Kids And Wear A Bikini Is Because I Work My Ass Off. It's Not An Accident. It's Not Luck, It's Not Fairy Dust, It's Not Good Genes. It's Killing Myself For An Hour And A Half Five Days A Week, But What I Get Out Of It Is Relative To What I Put Into It.

He's Grappling With The Fact That The World Is Unsafe, And That There Are People Who Do Harmful Things. I Don't Think There's Anything Wrong With Presenting That Idea. We Can't Lie To Our Children And Pretend That The World Is Perfect, And Everybody's Happy, And Everybody's Out There To Do Good. It's Just Part Of A Bigger Conversation.

Beauty, To Me Is About Being Comfortable In Your Own Skin.

I Don't Really Understand The Concept Of Having A Career, Or What Agents Mean When They Say They're Building One For You. I Just Do Things I Think Will Be Interesting And That Have Integrity. I Hate Those Tacky, Pointless, Big, Fluffy, Unimportant Movies.

I Try As Best I Can To Really Put All I Can Into What I'm Doing. A Lot Of Days I Fail And There's Too Much To Do. I Do Think It's Really Important To Have Time To Yourself, Whether That's Reading Something Interesting When The Kids Are In Bed Or Even Having A Dog.

I Do 45 Minutes Of Cardio Five Days A Week, Because I Like To Eat. I Also Try For 45 Minutes Of Muscular Structure Work, Which Is Toning, Realigning And Lengthening. If I'm Prepping For Something Or I've Been Eating A Lot Of Pie, I Do Two Hours A Day, Six Days A Week For Two Weeks.

When I Was Pregnant, I Couldn't Wear Fragrance. I Couldn't Smell Anything. I Couldn't Smell Flowers, I Was Very Sensitive To Everything. I Could Smell Orange Juice From Across The Room And I Remember Thinking, 'i Will Throw Up.'

The Simpler Things Are, The Happier They Are.

I Really Worry About The State Of The Planet And I Wish Everyone Would Make A Concerned Effort Not To Trash It.

I Do Really Believe That Beauty Comes From Within, Mostly How You Feel About Yourself And How You Express Love Of Yourself, But Also In The Form Of Nutrition.

When I Turned 40 I Thought, 'i Have To Really Make Sure I Have Time To Myself,' Because It's Very Overwhelming To Be Taking Care Of So Many People.

I Love Being. There's So Much Wisdom In It. You Wake Up In The Morning And You Think, Hey, Isn't It Great Just Being?

I Am Who I Am. I Can't Pretend To Be Somebody Who Makes $25,000 A Year.

I'm A Real Blue Jeans Girl, I Wear Jeans All The Time And I Couldn't Live Without Them. Jeans And Blazers.

My Dad Always Said He Couldn't Remember A Time When I Did Not Want To Act.

My Daughter Is Super Ballsy. I Always Follow Her Lead. I Actually Don't Need To Encourage Her To Take Risks. She Likes To Push Herself; She Wants To See How Far She Can Get. It's Really Inspiring To See That In A Young Woman.

I Don't Fit Into The Bad Side Of American Psychology. The British Are Much More Intelligent And Civilized Than The Americans.

No. I Think They're The Idiot People And I'm The Normal Person. But I Don't Really Go To Parties Where...i Don't Really Have Drunk Friends. My Friends Are Kind Of Adult; They Have A Drink. But They Hold Their Liquor. I Think It's Incredibly Embarrassing When People Are Drunk. It Just Looks So Ridiculous. I Find It Very Degrading. I Think, Oh, You're Really Degrading Yourself Right Now, To Be This Pissed Out In Public.

I Was A Fool. I Had No Idea What I Was Getting Myself Into. But I Have To Say, It's Been Incredibly Rewarding And I Learn So Much Every Day.

Some Days I Feel Like Everyone In My World Has Plugged Themselves Into My Kidney. I'm So Tired. But When You're Having Dinner With Your Kids And Your Husband And Someone Says Something Funny Or You're Dying Laughing Because Your Three-year-old Made A Fart Joke, It Doesn't Matter What Else Is Going On. That's Real Happiess.
