“If we treated ourselves as well as we treated our best friend, can you imagine?”

My parents always told me if I believed something was wrong, I should try to fix it.

You have to take care of yourself so you can manage the workload of a very, very full plate.

My mother was a free-spirited clinical therapist, and I had the most hard-working father, a television lighting director by trade. My mum raised me to be a global citizen, with eyes open to sometimes harsh realities.

I grew up with that farm-to-table dining before it was sweeping the nation. I do think there’s some value to really throwing yourself into food and embracing where it comes from.

Once you develop a comfort level with someone, that translates on camera.

I never want to lose touch with reality. I won’t push $100 candles just because. I realized that I could create a hub of positivity and affirmation.

I think the biggest part of being a girl boss in the office, at home, or anywhere you go is just knowing your value.

I’m really big on day dates. If you go for a stroll, have a picnic or lunch with a glass of wine – it doesn’t get better than that.

Catty is not cool. I can’t think of anything less becoming than a man who talks about people behind their backs.

I was not a girl who grew up buying $100 candles. I was the girl who ran out of gas on her way to an audition.

If you have an Ina Garten-level roasted-chicken recipe, it’s a game changer. I bring that to dinner parties and make a lot of friends.

I love connecting with the fan base and sharing my experiences.

It was the late ’70s when my parents met. My dad was a lighting director for a soap opera, and my mom was a temp at the studio. They moved into a house in The Valley in L.A., to a neighborhood that was leafy and affordable.

Food makes travel so exceptional, because you get to taste what it’s actually supposed to taste like. To eat the real Pad Thai or finally have a proper curry is something pretty amazing.

While my life shifts from refugee camps to red carpets, I choose them both because these worlds can, in fact, coexist. And for me, they must.

I’m an actress, a writer, the editor-in-chief of my lifestyle brand ‘The Tig’, a pretty good cook, and a firm believer in handwritten notes.

I feel I can serve to the best of my abilities, and where I feel I can make a real difference, and further their cause.

I think LEGOs are one of the best toys ever developed.

Only taking the best evidence available at the present time,

We live in the best of all possible worlds.

The best laid plot can injure its maker, and often a man’s perfidy will rebound on himself.

The intelligence community is very professional, they do their jobs well, they’re the best intelligence gatherers in the world.

We already know that there are those close to James Comey who have a very different take, if there are tapes, of course, that would be the best evidence of what took place.

As that gallant can best affect a pretended passion for one woman who has no true love for another, so he that has no real esteem for any of the virtues can best assume the appearance of them all.
