“My parents said marrying was an optimistic thing to do in pessimistic times.”

From a very early age, I made my decisions based on careers that I admire. The one thing that all the actresses I love have in common is that they have diversity in their careers.

Obviously, local elections are where you can make the most difference, but it’s great when everyone starts talking about what they believe in.

But even if I’m left high and dry at the end of this wild journey, just taking it is a great feeling.

I’m pretty low-key; you’ll often find me in jeans, a T-shirt and sweatshirt.

In a relationship I’m a very loving person, emotional and sensitive.

I feel like fashion should not happen in the morning.

It’s so important to have that independence. You know it yourself: Everyone needs evenings of their own.

It would be so depressing to be a model and not get to say a word. There’s no personality involved.

I’m a natural blonde, but I feel like a brunette. I feel like people treat me now how I should be treated. People used to be shocked, when I was blond, that I wasn’t stupid.

My parents were journalists and friends with writers, artists, and just a really interesting assortment of people, so I was exposed to all lifestyles from a young age.

I fell in love with theater there, and after graduation I moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting.

If I have to draw attention away from some hormone-induced acne on my chin, I put on a lot of mascara.

I guess for my skin, I clean it and moisturize and try to drink water. How boring is this though? I’m convinced that it comes from within. If you’re happy and healthy, it shows.

It was helpful to have the confidence of youth that came from a lack of desperation. I thought, ‘If I don’t succeed, I’ll go back to school and study.’

I do not tweeze my eyebrows. I’ve been letting them grow out for years. I try to fill them in wherever nature has abandoned me.

Documentaries are a powerful and effective way of bridging the gap between worlds, breaking through to new audiences that wouldn’t otherwise be engaged – in essence, not preaching to the choir.

Love is so much better when you are not married.

A wedding is and event, but marriage is a life.

Of course I believe in marriage. Commitment to one other person in life is glorious.

We will never obtain God’s kind of marriage simply by going along with the crowd, doing what everybody else does. We have to dig deep into the heart of God to discover His principles.

Love in marriage is more than just a feeling or an emotion; it is a choice.

Art is a marriage of the conscious and the unconscious.

All romances end at marriage.

So you want to be married, oh baby, trying to put me on a chain, ain’t that some shame? You must be losing your weak little mind.
