“I’m very attached to movie theaters and I love going to them. Nothing will ever replace that. It’s very romantic and beautiful. I used to want to live inside of one, with a bathtub, a bike and a bed, and just watch movies.”

I don’t use the Internet, but apparently you can find out everything on it.

For a long time, I was almost ashamed of being an actress. I felt like it was a shallow occupation. People would be watching my every move.

I feel my best when I’m happy.

I often get offered things that are so similar to things that I have done, and life is too short. When you make a film or a show, as you get older, that’s a lot of time to be doing something that you’re not absolutely invested in or in love with.

One thing you have to have when you act is energy.

In America, I don’t know how much longer the environment is going to exist. I sort of strongly believe that we’re in danger.

I’m not a drug user myself. I’m too little to take drugs – my body can’t take it.

The older you get, the more yourself you can be and the less worried you are about what other people think.

Scapegoating will go on forever. We need someone to blame – illegal immigrants, single moms, people in prison. We need someone to victimize.

I think it’s really important to have a life and have interests outside of this [movie] business, and not rely on this business to validate you as a human being. If you do that, you’re really in a dangerous spot.

I remember the whole thing with the word ambition. I was messed up for a while because I associated it with certain people who just want to be famous. I think, for a while, it was kind of a dirty word for women.

People think that they just want movies like Pretty Woman, when really they – at least the ones that I know personally – have been waiting for something that doesn’t completely insult them.

Break-ups are hard for anybody, but it’s particularly tough when it’s being documented and you see the person’s picture everywhere. Most people don’t have that added problem when they break up with someone.

I was very depressed after breaking off my engagement with Johnny ten years ago. I was embarrassingly dramatic at the time, but you have to remember I was only 19 years old.

I have this sense that I didn’t really start growing up until my twenties.

A woman who wears high heels is very different, I think, than a woman who wears sandals.

You will never be able to find happiness if you stay attached to the wrong person and don’t move on.

Sometimes, we are so attached to our way of life that we turn down wonderful opportunities simply because we don’t know what to do with it.

All men know their children mean more than life.

It’s not much of a tail, but I’m sort of attached to it.

When you’re an introvert like me and you’ve been lonely for a while, and then you find someone who understands you, you become really attached to them. It’s a real release.

Citizens by birth or choice of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections.

Attachment is the opposite of healing.

It is a mere question of time when men will succeed in attaching their machinery to the very wheelwork of nature.
