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

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.

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.

I don’t put weight on fame, and having people around me just because I am famous makes me feel really bad about myself.

You have to trust your instincts. There is a moment when an actor has it, and he knows it.

Don Siegel last advice to me was ‘Don’t short yourself.’ He said the tendency is when an actor’s directing is to kind of you want to work on everybody else but you’re going to short yourself. He said, take the time to do a good job with yourself so that you’re satisfied with it.

A star on a movie set is like a time bomb. That bomb has got to be defused so people can approach it without fear.

In other words, I wouldn’t like to be an actor if I could only be real. I like to get wild, behaviourally wild, and it’s crazy to think of any form where it’s just one way.

Frankly, I got into the movies because I like the movies a lot.

I want to be an actor, I am just not very comfortable talking about myself.

I have no idea what I’m doing, and that’s kind of how I love it.

A lot of actors think that what we do is so important, like we’re saving people’s lives or something.
