“My mother always called me an ugly weed, so I never was aware of anything until I was older. Plain girls should have someone telling them they are beautiful. Sometimes this works miracles.”

Hope & curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me, and still is.

A woman has to live her life, or live to repent not having lived it.

The ladder of success in Hollywood is usually a press agent, actor, director, producer, leading man; and you are a star if you sleep with each of them in that order. Crude, but true.

Lawyers know how to take isolated complaints in a divorce case and build them into one big one.

Self love is not only loving the parts of yourself you deem beautiful, but also the parts you’d rather hide away knowing they are all deserving.
