I’ve been a vegetarian for years and years. I’m not judgemental about others who aren’t, I just feel I cannot eat or wear living creatures.
A fish may love a bird, but where would they live?
I don’t want to be stinky poo poo girl, I want to be happy flower child.
I love being single. It’s great. I get to be who I am and do what I want and be with the people I love. I feel like I have everything and I’m very fortunate, and it’s very rich fulfilling time in my life.
When I was 19, I picked up an old, tiny, automatic Yashica camera and I just started shooting. We didn’t have iPhones back then, we didn’t even have cell phones. I loved having a camera in my hand.
I don’t want to sit around and hope good things happen. I want to make them happen.
I love the very exposed, humorous, imperfect, never-trying to-pretend-to-be-perfect journey that I have been on in my life.
I’m such a profound believer that timing is everything; I would tattoo that on my arm.
I never want to get to the point where it’s all about my needs, and the hell with anybody else.
I think happiness is a choice. If you feel yourself being happy and can settle in to the life choices you make, then it’s great. It’s really, really great. I swear to God, happiness is the best makeup.
I’m a carb queen. I’ll always order macaroni and cheese, but I don’t want it to be fancy. I want it to be as close to Kraft Services as it can possibly get!
It’s never too late. Don’t focus on what was taken away. Find something to replace it, and acknowledge the blessing you have.
A thank-you can be just as meaningful as a soulful ten-page message.
I just didn’t understand the American political system, and I felt really stupid about that.
Being pregnant and having a toddler, as every parent says, is amazing. You’re very tired, but it’s so wonderful. God, it’s emotional, but it’s the best. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.
I no longer have the fear of being alone. It’s cool to find out that you don’t need a boyfriend to be happy.
I try to make movies that I would want to go see rather than ones I would just want to do as an actor. I want people to have movies full of romance and hope and empowerment, something they can escape into and feel good about. I love happy endings.
I aspire to be that, to be a voice of reason one day.
I know that I won’t succeed at everything, every day. Some days have to be solely about my daughter. Some days I really try to be a good wife. Other days, I can take a few hours for myself and just do nothing but really focus on work.
You have to fight unhappiness like a dragon with fire and breathe.
