“I grew up in a very toxic home.”

I’m not overly focused on being loved by everybody.

I’m scared of the unknown future.

I didn’t binge when I was pregnant.

I don’t think it’s good to constantly talk about your own weight and the fact that you look fat in jeans.

I love pregnancy and the bump and the whole thing.

You have to work for everything. Marriage should not be any different.

Being with my family is my highest priority.

Exercise is like an old friend: You may not be able to see that friend all the time, but you’re not mad when you see them, you’re happy, and you get right back into it.

Food is not your best friend or enemy.

Depriving yourself will, ironically enough, lead to rebelling and weight gain.

You choose happiness. You don’t wait for it to choose you.

I like to look nice, but I’m not marketing being beautiful.

I balance it all by being extremely organized, and I am a very efficient delegator.

I always know that I am where I am supposed to be. I don’t feel torn and I think that is really important.

I think that yoga, it really is a process.

If you start giving your kids anxiety about food, it’s going to last a lifetime. Moms have to lead by example. Don’t say, “Oh, my jeans don’t fit,” or “Oh, I was bad.” No diets. Nothing like that.

At sixty-three years of age, less a quarter, one still has plans.

Time scoots along pretty fast when you grow up.

It happens suddenly. One day, your parents don’t pick you up any more.

I’m the New York Jew who actually grew up in Minnesota.

You see, they love America like a 4-year-old loves his mommy. Liberals love America like grown-ups. To a 4-year-old, everything Mommy does is wonderful and anyone who criticizes Mommy is bad.

You’ve got to be a Lakers fan growing up in L.A. with all these championships.

It’s easy when you grow up in fear to act out of fear. I don’t want to embrace that fear; I prefer to be kind.

No matter where you are or where you grow up, you always go through the same awkward moments of being a teenager and growing up and trying to figure out who you are.
