“I am so saddened and grossed out by young women who look like creepy, old aliens because of their new Barbie noses and lips. Is that a smile or a grimace?”

I feel like the luckiest child in the world because I got to grow up in Ireland. In summer is when you really grow up. During the year, I would go back to the States, and all year long really couldn’t wait to get back to Ardmore.

I don’t own a scale, and Tao banned the word ‘fat’ from our house. If we eat too much, we say, ‘I feel clogged up.’

I’m a natural blonde, but I feel like a brunette.

If you fall off a horse, you get back up. I am not a quitter.

Now I’m doing a film festival for kids and writing a script about a kidnapped journalist in Afghanistan.

When you’re a working actor and you’re happy to be one, you can’t focus all your energy on acting because you will go crazy. You have to focus as much energy as you can away from yourself.

I got a divorce, and I felt like I finally started my career. I started making movies and projects that I just really believed in.

I think my confidence has developed over the years in terms of the speed at which I will reveal how collaborative I want to be.

I was a handful growing up.

I’ve thought for a long time that my body type would have worked well in the ’70s. The idea that you could be a broad-shouldered, small-breasted woman and still wear really great outfits.

You’re going to change as you grow older, and that messes up a lot of relationships.

A good litmus test is that you should be comfortable with your significant other being present when you hang out with your friend.

I’m still a student of fashion, but I like hooking up with the people that really know how to make cool clothes.

I enjoy getting gussied up for an event or date night.

I have a great pack of female friends, but I also have a lot of guy friends. I believe that platonic relationship is entirely possible.

I grew up being told by my parents each time they went off to war that they may explode, so I needed to know how things like the gadgets in the kitchen worked.
