My Life Changes Dramatically Every Time I Get Up Out Of Bed. After My Proposal Life Changed In That I Wasn't Asked To Change. I Always Thought That Marriage Meant Someone Was Going To Ask You To Stop Being Who You Were. And I Met Someone Who Not Only Wants Me To Be Who I Am But Likes It.

When You Have A Full Page Of Well-written Dialogue That Has A Thought Process To It, It Is Pretty Easy To Memorize.

Whoever Established The High Road, And How High It Should Be, Should Be Fired.

Taking The High Road

I Didn't Watch Any Films. This Film, The Proposal, Had It All In The Script. Once All The Pieces, Once I Met Anne Fletcher And I Knew What She Wanted And That We Wanted The Same Things, And Once They Said Ryan Reynolds Was On Board And Once The Casting Came Together, You Saw What It Wanted To Be.

You're Never In Control. That - That Is The Greatest Fallacy Of The - You Know, There's Over 200 People That It Requires To Make A Film. And There's People Who Are In Control Of How You Look, What Your Performance Is, What Takes Are Used, What - You're Only In Control Of How You Say No.

Making A Difference

If I Can Do Anything In This Time Of My Career, I Want To Make It Easier For Other Actresses And Girls Who Are Growing Up To Go, 'i Get To Be A Part Of A Comedy Or An Action Film Or A Romantic Comedy Or A Thriller Or Just A Romance, Without Having To Wind Up With Someone To Complete Us.'

I Like Lists, I'm Controlling, I Like Order. I'm Difficult On Every Level.

Things You Love

Anyone Who Has Been Given The Gift Of Being Opposite An Actor Who Gives And Gives, It Just Makes You Better.

There's No Magic Numbers In Birthdays In My Life, There Are No Milestones, There's No Event. Every Birthday Has To Be Celebrated To Its Fullest, Even If It's With One Person Or With 20.

I Think Most Of Us Are Raised With Preconceived Notions Of The Choices We're Supposed To Make. We Waste So Much Time Making Decisions Based On Someone Else's Idea Of Our Happiness - What Will Make You A Good Citizen Or A Good Wife Or Daughter Or Actress.

I Don’t Think There’s Ever What Could Be Called A "chilled State" In My Head.

There Weren't Roles For Females In Comedies For A Really Long Time.

If You Can't Pronounce It, You Probably Shouldn't Be Putting It In Your Body Or In Your Environment.

Half Of My Family Has A Deep-rooted Connection To The South And Louisiana, And For Me, New Orleans Is One Of Our Most Precious, Historic Communities: Visually, Emotionally, Artistically.

I'm Very Musically Inclined. My Parents Were Opera Singers. As A Young Child, I Could Hear Operas And I Knew If They Were Sad, Or If They Reminded Me Of Something, Or They Brought Back A Memory.

Why Is Marriage The Pinnacle For Everyone? People Get Married For The Wrong Reasons. We Need To Start Looking At Different Packages, Whether It's Living Together, Or Being With Six Partners, Or Dedicating Your Life To Taking Care Of Flowers.

I Love New Orleans I Love The Way It Looks. I Love The Way It Feels.

I Never Felt I Was Missing Anything Ever Until One Day I Stopped Long Enough To Smell The Roses Outside Of This Little Treadmill I'd Gotten Myself Onto And I Realised There Were Other Things That I Like That I Didn't Know.

I Don't Know If I Always Want To Be In Front Of The Camera. I Love Producing, I Love The Camaraderie. I Love The Adventures. I Love The Stress.

I'll Do Anything For Free Stuff.

The Joke Or The Pratfall Is Easy For Me To Do.

To Me, The Producing Falls Into The Same As Acting. It Requires So Much Time Out Of Your Life, And I Take It Very Personally, I Realize. So If I Do Something, It Just Has To Be Something I Love And I Don't Want Anyone Else To Do. When I Open Projects, Maybe Something Will Appeal To Me. I Think I'm Not Opening Them Because I Don't Want Anything To Appeal To Me Right Now.

Racism, Anti-semitism, Homophobia, Sexism, Anything Nazi And A Boatload Of Other Things Have No Place In My Life.

Every Movie Is A Love Story.

Savor What You Are And Not What Everyone Else Wants You To Be.

Nobody Can Make Me Cry In Public. I'll Punch Them First Before They Make My Mascara Smear.

Competing With Other Women Wastes A Lot Of Time, And I'm Just Not Very Good At It.

I'm Like The Queen Of Planning And Scheduling And I'm Trying Very Hard To Stop It. I Just Want To Finish What I'm Doing And Go Home. I Want To Have A Weekend. I Want To Have Breakfast, A Stack Of Pancakes.

Makeup Is Scary. When I Do It Myself, It's Just Mascara, And Sometimes I Forget Even To Do That.

Music, Somehow, Breaks Through, To Everybody.

Failing Is What We Do, Or Stumbling Is What We Do On A Daily Basis.

I Did Love That Scene In The Movie [ "our Brand Is Crisis"] Because It's Like "the Wizard Of Oz." You See The Backstage Action Of Politics. You Have Access To See Behind The Curtain. You See How It's All One Big Advertisement.

Nothing Makes Me Happier Than Dancing. It Transforms Me. It's The Only Time I Let Out What Is Inside And I Feel Completely Sensual And Sexy And Alive.

Every Single Second Of Every Single Day... I Don't Know If I Feel Like A Bad Mom, But At The End Of The Day I'm Always Plagued With, 'did I Do Enough? Should I Go In A Different Direction?'

The End Of The Day

My First Review For The Tv Movie The Bionic Showdown Said I Was As Interesting As A Bus Ride.

I Don't Think We Spend Enough Time In Silence, Just Realizing What's Floating Around In Our Noggin.

I'm Just Having Fun. And Giving A Sort Of Second Shot At Childhood And Life - And I Need To Be Present To Do It.

To Me, True Beauty Isn't Something That Will Wash Off In The Shower At The End Of The Day. It's Something That's Still There, Before You Go To Bed And Wake Up In The Morning. And, You Know, They Always Say That's Inner Beauty, But It Is.

The End Of The Day

I Just Want People To Admit That There's No One Way To Live Your Life.

I Love Humor. I Always Will Fall Back On Humor. That's Something That I Think You Can't Ever Get Enough Of And, If It's Done Well, It's Great. When It's Bad, It's Horrible.

I'm Not A Fan Of Reality Shows, But I Am A Fan Of People Who Use Their Brains And Skills And Hard Work To Outsmart People, Not To Steal Someone's Man Or Get Drunk On Tv.

I Consider Myself Sort Of Like A Pseudo Lawyer. Like, I'm Convinced I Can Solve Every Case And Argue My Way.

I Will Make Myself Sick On Films, Just Because You Want Everything To Be Right. I Can't Sleep If Something Hasn't Been Done Or Is Out Of Place.

I'm Always In This Shape, That Shape, Whatever Shape You Like The Most. I Am Always In Various Stages Of Shapes.

I Hated My Whole Childhood, Hated It, Hated It, Hated It. There Was No Place For Me.

I Would Love To Be On 'top Gear' As A Star In A Reasonably Priced Car.

I've Always Been Very Skeptical About Marriage, Because I Only Want To Do It Once; I Want To Do It The Right Way.

Every Day Is Amazing, Even When It's Awful, Because Everything Is For A Reason. I Know That This Horrible Thing That's Happening Today Is Going To Bring Something So Amazing.

There's No Race, No Religion, No Class System, No Color - Nothing - No Sexual Orientation, That Makes Us Better Than Anyone Else. We're All Deserving Of Love.

I Still Love Being Creative. I Still Love The Aspects Of Working Together With Great, Talented People. But It's A Weird Dichotomy; I'm Being Blessed With More Opportunities, But I'm Going To Be Taking Less Of Them.

I'm Not Politically Vocal. I Just Want What's Best For Our Country. I Want Our Rights Respected And Those Of My Son's.

I've Never Had Good Fortune With Sequels. Everyone Says This Time Is Going To Be Better. And Then I've Done Them And They've Just Been Not - They Weren't Better.

I Was Afraid Of Being A Failure, Of Not Having The Best Time Or Of Being Chicken. But Every Year I Get Older I Think, What Was I Fearing Last Year?' You Forget. And Then You Move On.

I Now Know That Anything Sweet, Really Sweet, That I Have Was Nothing That I Planned. If You Don't Have Kids And Animals, You Don't Truly Know What Real Life Is About.
