“Guys are stimulated easily. They are easy to manipulate. All you have to do is wear a sexy outfit.”

I could have sexual chemistry with vinegar.

Everyone has an opinion of who you are and what your relationship is about, things that you’ve done or didn’t do in your relationship – and it’s just all crap, really. Things that are written about it are all crap.

I don’t hang out with the Hollywood cool people. I’m not out trying to make friends with people because they’re famous.

Movies are the shadiest business in the world.

You have to be the best of whatever you are, but successful, cool actresses come in all shapes and sizes.

I like to cook. I would probably go to culinary school in France if I had time.

Just being a mother is making me a big, weepy mess.

What a sight of storm you are as a lie beside me in your deep, peaceful slumber.

Only a white-haired old man, who would be a prophet Yet is not a prophet, for he’s much too busy, Repeats while he binds his tomatoes: No other end of the world will there be, No other end of the world will there be.
