“I spent so many years just saying what I felt without thinking about the ramifications, without understanding that I have this opinion but not everyone might share that opinion and now they don’t like me because of it.”

I used to weigh myself every day at a certain time of day. Then I would write down the number and measure my body fat. It wasn’t a healthy way to live.

A girl told me my lips looked like somebody had pressed strawberry yogurt against my face.

If I start going back to church, I’d have to stop the smoking and drinking, and I wouldn’t be able to curse any more.

If I spread myself too thin, I’m not a good actor, I’m not a good mother, and I’m just really high-strung – and everybody hates me.

Some people think, if you’re in the public eye, that you have to have an answer for everything and it has to be boring.

I’m done with the whole idea of having my own children. It doesn’t seem like any fun.

My mother often says that she could never have done it if I had been the youngest, if she had other small children she had to cart around New York City for my auditions and go-sees (modeling auditions) and stuff.

Guys are much more obvious than they think they are.

My sister is Korean and my parents adopted her about three years before I was born and that is how I grew up.

I’m terrible with patience.

Even if you plan a marriage and a family, you are never quite prepared for the reality versus how you imagined it. In a lot of ways it’s better, and in a lot of ways it’s worse. That’s life, right?

My career is really important to me, but there have to be other great, important things in your life besides work.

I keep kind of making certain mistakes in public appearances over and over again.

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.

You know when you’re sitting on a chair and you lean back so you’re just on two legs and you lean too far so you almost fall over but at the last second you catch yourself? I feel like that all the time.

Whenever you’re feeling down. And I am not around let the sight of me be the reason you smile.

Feeling we have nothing to offer others is our heart reminding us how much we have yet to give to ourselves.

I love where I’m from. I don’t live there because of the circumstances, but all my family is there. It’s what’s inside, it’s not what’s outside that determines the culture and the feeling.

I want to know how you feel and I don’t mean the pretty stuff, I mean the stuff you’re afraid to say out loud.

Sometimes I feel I hope I am not taking advantage of my stardom.

There are days when I go out on the court and I feel like I can’t miss a ball.

The Indians were well mounted and felt proud and elated because they had been made United States soldiers.
