The Mystique And The Romance Of A Big Wedding Are Lost On Me. I Don't Think That I Could Ever Do Something That Extravagant. I Am Not Much Of A Planner. I Would Probably Make The Phone Call 20 Minutes Before The Bus Leaves For The Chapel And Ask If Anyone Is Available To Come. That's Probably How My Wedding Is Going To End Up.

I Believe In Fate And What's Meant To Be Mine Will Be Mine, And If It's Not In My Lap, Then It's Not Mine.

Sexuality And Love Can Be Different Things. I Can Be Attracted To A Woman Sexually, But It Doesn't Mean I Want To Be In Love With A Woman. If I'm Going To Be With A Woman Sexually, It Doesn't Mean I'm A Lesbian. We Put These Restraints And Definitions On People, But It's Hard To Define.

It's Not Talked About, But You Know How Girls, As You Get Older, Your Boobs Sag? Well, As Men Get Older, Their Balls Hang Lower. It's Called Sbh: Senior Ball Hang. I Think That's God's Way Of Making Sure Guys Get To Feel Insecure Too.

I'm Someone Who Loves To Enjoy Life And Tries To Focus On Real Things And Real Friendships. That's Why I Live Very Simply. I'm A Jeans And T-shirt Kind Of Girl.

There's No Such Thing As Turning Back The Hands Of Time, And It Makes Me Crazy That We Live In A Society Where That's Sold To Women—that We're Supposed To Believe That If We're Getting Older, We've Failed Somehow, That We Have Failed By Not Staying Young.

You Haven't Partied Until You've Partied At Dawn In Complete Silence With Buddhist Monks.

I'm Honestly So Grateful To Have A Job When I Get A Job, I'm Always Amazed - I Just Appreciate What I Have When I Get It.

Friendships I Think Can Also Be Soul Mates.

Even If I Loved The Script, The Director Has To Be Right Because It's All About The Filmmaker. It's Their Vision. They're The Ones That Go Back Into The Editing Room And Reassemble The Film.

I'm Not Ashamed Of Being A Bubbly, Funny Person. I Think That's As Valid As Being The Dark, Brooding, Tortured Oscar-nominated One.

Script For An Actor Is Like A Bible. You Carry It With You, You Read It Over And Over, You Go To Your Passages.

[the Other Woman]s Not Only A Story About Friendship And Women And How We Support One Another And How We're There For One Another, But It Also Shows How Different These Women Are.

We Went To High School Together; He Was A Year Older Than Me. I Remember Him There . . . He Was Very Tall And Skinny, Wore Lots Of Ponytails In His Head, And I'm Pretty Sure I Bought Weed From Him. I Had To Have.

I Think Women Are Afraid To Say That They Don't Want Children Because They're Going To Get Shunned. But I Think That's Changing Too Now. I Have More Girlfriends Who Don't Have Kids Than Those That Do. And Honestly? We Don't Need Any More Kids. We Have Plenty Of People On This Planet.

I Hate Committing Myself To Anything. It's Probably The Lack Of Discipline, Honestly. I'm Probably A Spoiled Brat Worried About Getting My Way Every Time.

The Mystique And The Romance Of A Big Wedding Are Lost On Me. I Don't Think That I Could Ever Do Something That Extravagant. I Am Not Much Of A Planner. I Would Probably Make The Phone Call 20 Minutes Before The Bus Leaves For The Chapel And Ask If Anyone Is Available To Come. That's Probably How My Wedding Is Going To End Up.

The Last Couple Of Years Were Hell. Like, I Can't Even Tell You, It Was So Hard. I Didn't Know How To Handle It.

I'm Very Happy With The Way I Look. I Wake Up Some Morning, Catch Myself In The Bathroom Mirror, And Go, 'hey Girl, You're Alright'.
