“If you take care of the woman in the family, the whole family prospers. But when the mother falters, the family falls apart.”

Ultimately, you’re left with the people you love and who love you- everything else fades into oblivion.

I’m very much an admirer of people who are reaching for things and trying to survive.

Men don’t pay you for sex, they pay you to leave after sex.

Whatever you do in life, don’t give up on your own dreams.

~My instinct is to protect my children from pain. But adversity is often the thing that gives us character and backbone. It’s always been a struggle for me to back off and let my children go through difficult experiences.~

The journey of life – we all go through it: You have love, you lose love, you find new love. To have love again is a beautiful thing.

I think each role takes a little from you and circles around you for the rest of your life. I don’t think you ever abandon any of them.

Don’t you worry about a thing, my darling. You live your life.

I just have a desire not to judge and view things compassionately.

Now my ability to notice things and respond to things and be here is far more profound. With that comes happiness, with it comes sadness, but it’s a beautiful life.

I suppose expectations are strange and I shy away from them. And the whole point of being an actor is to connect.

Part of our job as human beings is to share our knowledge and share the things we’ve learned. So we can either save people from making the same mistakes, or give them hope.

Breathe and don’t try to be perfect.

I refuse to let what happened to me make me bitter.

An actor who’s a control freak, that doesn’t work. We have to be malleable. We cannot come in and try to control or dominate.

That goes against what I believe morally. That’s adultery, and if I’m accused of that, no, that’s not right. I have two kids who see that and remember that and judge me. It didn’t happen, and it’s not to be reported that way.

Even the silence has music if you care to listen to.

Our maturity will be judged by how well we are able to agree to disagree and yet continue to love one another, to care for one another, and cherish one another and seek the greater good of the other.

Even the Moon takes care of you wherever you go, it follows you.

A purpose, an intention, a design, strikes everywhere even the careless, the most stupid thinker.

That we live in a post-truth society today, and that we don’t care, that we have lost empathy. We have stopped caring for each other in a way. We have stopped thinking long-term and sustainable. And that’s something that goes much deeper than just climate crisis deniers.

Do your duty and a little more and the future will take care of itself.

You deserve a good man. Who tells you he cares. Who listens when you speak. Who chooses you above the rest.

I mastered the art of not caring and wow it made me more daring.
