“A parent knows better than any book or “expert” what their kid really needs.”

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.

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

The time I’m not spending with my kid has to be worth it.

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

I basically went out with any guy who asked me because hardly anyone ever asked me out.

As a girl, I was always told I was nasty or dirty if I was sexual in any way. Americans are such prudes.

I share the same advice that my mom gave me – stay hydrated and sleep well. And that being a beautiful person on the inside is what really matters.

The more you do, the more you think, the better you get.

I’m a student. I want to do better, and I want directors who can find the actress in me and be my teachers. I’m interested in the whole process of editing, post-production and direction.

Forgiving doesn’t make the person who hurt you feel better, it makes you feel better.

Now at 47, 48 I am expected to do ten times better work that I did when I was 24.

As long as there is pink in the world, it will always be a better place.

The next generation has always been and will be better than the previous one. If it is not, then the world would not be moving forward.

When will you start asking different questions? Better questions?

Every time you make a mistake, don’t bring up everything that’s wrong with yourself; tell yourself that you’re paying the price for growth and that you will learn to do better next time. Every positive thing you can say to yourself will help.
