"I'd love to be a man for a day, just to see what it's like."
"The older I get, the more I embrace my own idiosyncrasies."
"I'm tardy sometimes. I would like to be more orderly and timely."
"I would like to be happy and healthy, and live as long as possible."
"As long as you have yourself to believe in, then you're gonna be okay."
"I always envisioned her looking like a spindly blonde, but she looked like me."
"I don't talk about relationships in print any more. That's one great thing I learned."
"Everyone has a devil and angel on their shoulder, tempting them to do something."
"I'm a creative person. I've always chosen people who are entertaining themselves."
"I don't even take myself seriously, so how could I possibly take Hollywood seriously?"
"Some secrets should remain secrets, but I'm not sure I can think of myself that way."

"I've noticed there are alter egos within what I've been writing, so I don't know if it's life affecting art or art affecting life."

"If I could be a third of the woman that my mom is and have a third of the strength that she has, then I will have done good by this life."
"Once you're working, you get in the dirt of things. You get your feet dirty - that's part of the job, so no dirt makeup under the nails. It was real."

"I'm a Christian. I go to church when I can. I was raised Baptist. I went to a Lutheran school. I'm a nondenominational practicing Christian. I have a lot of faith."

"When I was 14 I could have veered off in two different directions and done one or the other, acting or music. I chose acting and continued writing and doing music for myself."
"I'm a really rotten liar. Generally, if I've tried to pull off a lie, it hasn't worked out to my advantage. My mom always said, "Don't lie. Then you never have to remember anything you've said."
"I'd do almost anything for love, within safe boundaries. I've flown to places to surprise people, even if it was just for a day. I think it's so important to keep the romance alive and make sure the fun and spontaneity are there."
"I've always seen myself as one of those 'show people.' My earliest memories are wanting and needing to entertain people, like a gypsy traveler who goes from place to place, city to city, performing for audiences and reaching people."
"I think they should take everyone who works for The National Enquirer and the Star, and everyone who works for Us Weekly, and put them all to work looking for terrorists. I think they would find the terrorists. All of them. It would be genius!"
"To not beat yourself up and to trust and follow your instincts. It's easy to get wrapped up in sharing everyday life with a partner. It's fun to get lost in love and romance. It's the best. But holding on to yourself while doing that is the most important thing."
"I never really make solid resolutions. I think if there's something one needs to change with oneself, it doesn't have to happen in the New Year. You can do that any time you please - not that it's not a good inspirational tactic for the people that it works for."
"I think to call us best friends is almost an insult to our relationship. She's the greatest in the whole wide world, and I don't feel closer to anyone. She's a pillar of strength, and she doesn't flaunt it. She has this will-she just knows she can get through things. It's inspiring."
"I'd rather not perpetuate something that isn't true. But no, I've never had an eating disorder. And I don't do drugs. I have a glass of champagne now and then. I'm generally the person dancing at a party who everybody always thinks is the intoxicated one, but I'm really not."
"I'm a giver. I've learned to be selective of the people in my world, because if I love someone, I will give them my blood, whatever they need. In doing so, one can end up with little left for themselves. It's a lesson in self-preservation that I'm still learning. If you don't have yourself, you have nothing to give."
"After a breakup, it takes a couple weeks for the fog to settle, but it's always a period of self-priority and growth. Life presents you with so many decisions. A lot of times, they're right in front of your face and they're really difficult, but we must make them. Unfortunately, sometimes relationships don't work out. It's just the way life goes. But hopefully, you learn from them."
"I love Clara Bow. She was the original "It girl." The phrase was coined for her. It was the 1920s, when any form of naturalistic acting wasn't seen on screen before. She really cinematically changed things by showing natural emotions within that heightened reality. She was also a sex symbol at the same time. I love Giulietta Masina, who did a lot of Fellini films. She's brilliant. And Meryl Streep. And Barbra Streisand.I respect multi-taskers so much. Anyone that has a music career and anacting career I think is pretty fantastic."
"The thing that I'm learning right now is self-preservation - over the past year I've discovered if you keep on giving and giving, you end up losing yourself. I think that learning to give and receive is the trick. Perfect happiness is also a feeling, and the most amazing thing is that we were all born with the gift to make it happen in a heartbeat. Putting on certain music, reading something can make us feel a certain way; affirmations, letting ourselves breathe, enjoying our loved ones, and enjoying being in our own skin. I think the key to happiness is allowing ourselves to not feel bad or guilty for feeling it, and letting it be contagious. And to not be dependent on other people to create your own happiness."
