“The secret to using power is not to use it. Just having it is enough.”

I’m really good at being sarcastic with guys. That’s the best way to hang out with them, because that’s what guys . They don’t want the quiet, prissy little things.

I’m much more of a risk taker. I’m more fearless now than when I was 18. I was much more self-aware and I cared too much about what people thought of me and now I really don’t. I probably should.

I loved my baby dolls when I was a kid. I used to pray with them and say good night to each and every one of them because I didn’t want their feelings to get hurt. I remember having that connection with my baby dolls.

I always try to do something for my husband that’s completely selfless, and something that I hope will rock his world in some form or fashion.

Being perfect is being flawed, accepting it, and never letting it make you feel less than your best.

When I work out, I have energy and feel good about myself.

Way too high maintenance to be in a relationship with an actor. I don’t need a man who spends as much time in front of the mirror as me.

Sometimes I don’t like my thighs or stomach, but whenever I get caught up in that, I always focus on the fact that I’m healthy now.

I am the good girl and I always play the good girl. It’s nice to do that.

It’s really, really, really difficult to have the same occupation as the person you’re with – especially when you’re both actors.

Parents try the best they can. They want the best for you. But a lot of their stuff is just their own. If you can pull yourself away from it and not always feel like they’re attacking you, then it’s easier to deal with.

I never fit in with my peer group. I never hung out with kids my age – I always wanted to hang out with my mom and her girlfriends.

I’m not one of those women with a really thin body. I have body fat.

I’m all about supporting anyone whose art is also the way they make their living.

Find your passion and do it totally. The more life experience you get, the better you’ll be at whatever you want to do.

I like to organize. I have an opinion. I like to get stuff done.

The real power is in the hands of small groups of people and I don’t think they have titles.

Oh would some power the gift give us, to see ourselves as others see us!

Everything belonged to him–but that was a trifle. The thing to know was what he belonged to, how many powers of darkness claimed him for their own.

Whoever can conquer the street will one day conquer the state, for every form of power politics and any dictatorship-run state has its roots in the street.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.

You have no idea how much nastier I would be if I was not a Catholic. Without supernatural aid I would hardly be a human being.

My task, which I am trying to achieve is, by the power of the written word, to make you hear, to make you feel–it is, before all, to make you see.

Silence has sometimes a remarkable power of showing itself as the disembodied soul of feeling wandering without its carcase, and it is then more impressive than speech.
