“I’m really proud of myself because I’ve pared my beauty regimen down to a cream blush and berry-tinted lip balm, which has saved me so much time.”

I was the youngest child and really spoiled. I loved to play make-believe. I loved pretending to be all kinds of different people and it just seemed natural that I would go into acting.

I think that everybody has a right to their own thoughts, their own feelings and their own private moments, if they want them.

I’m a sappy mom now. I didn’t think I would be. I thought I’d be a cool mom who keeps everything in perspective.

Kids are a huge sacrifice; they change everything – but I’m ready to work for things of greater importance than going out to meet someone for dinner at 10 o’clock at night.

If I have to be focused and watch what I say, then I have to be comfortable.

In my career, I’m very grateful for the opportunities.

Adoption has been a part of my life and a part of my family, so it was how I wanted to start. It felt natural and right to me.

So much about living life, to me, is about humility and gratitude. And I’ve tried very hard to have those qualities and be that person and I’m just so disappointed in myself that I allowed it to slip.

It’s more fun to think that there are other worlds.

I’d be a terrible secret agent. I can’t keep a secret and I’m not sneaky.

I can hide, and my husband’s just terrible at finding me. I do like to jump out from behind doors and scare him.

Guys are kind of retarded until they’re about 30.

I’m not really a first-move kind of gal.

If shaytan has entered into your heart – evil will look beautiful to you and good will seem tiring and exhausting.

Your beauty never ends, it defines space and time.

The pure soul is a beautiful rose, and the Three Divine Persons descend from Heaven to inhale its fragrance.

Whats so poetically beautiful about my world now, is that its finally mine.

The purpose of soul questions is to open yourself deeper and deeper until all that is left is the power and beauty you are bringing to the lives of others.

If you got beauty, beauty, just raise em up. Cause every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top.
