“I’m a sappy mom now. I didn’t think I would be. I thought I’d be a cool mom who keeps everything in perspective.”

I look back at my twenties and see that I was much less confident.

My mother is a great source of advice and wisdom and consolation for me.

I pride myself on being kind.

I decided I was sick of trying to figure out what everybody else wanted, and I should just decide what I want, and be honest, and not spend all my time guessing.

I still love the theology of the Mormon religion and think it is a wonderful way to grow up.

When I do get pregnant, I highly doubt I’ll be one of those women who don’t look pregnant from behind – I’ll be that chick who looks pregnant from her ankles up!

My worst habit used to be smoking but I quit.

My good friends are Mormon, some of the best people I know.

Obviously my career’s important to me and I’m really, really passionate about trying to keep it.

I haven’t been to rehab, I don’t do anything eccentric – I’m really boring.

I’m not out burning bras, but I’m very opinionated about women owning their power.

I just like to shake things up, and your hair is one way to do it.

I was putting so much time and energy into just my work, but I was raised to believe that family comes first.

I am a better mother for having something in my life and not just my children.

I don’t want to be the person digging my own grave.

I’m the most uncoordinated clumsy, klutzy person. I always had a bruise, I always tripped and fell.

Emotion will always win over coolness and cleverness. It’s when a scene works emotionally and it’s cool and clever, then it’s great. That’s what you want.

If each dead person became a ghost, there’d be more than 100 billion of them haunting us all. Creepy, but cool.

The calm, Cool face of the river, Asked me for a kiss.

We real cool. We Left school. We Lurk late. We Strike straight. We Sing sin. We Thin gin. We Jazz June. We Die soon.

You just have to play it cool. You don’t want everyone to know you’re an amateur.

I don’t expect to seem cool to everyone; nor do I want to be. I think that’s the opposite of the definition of cool. So I don’t care at all.

I used to be a cool chick but I’m not anymore.

NEW YORK! I love you! You’re OFFICIALLY the coolest place on the planet!
