A man who opens a door for a woman or gives up his seat for her-even offering to carry something! Those are country manners that never go out of style.

Powerful women scare men. I think that when you're mature, you are powerful. And that's what makes you beautiful. So until we're able to see women as beautiful because they're strong, we're gonna have problems.

When I was 23, basically I stopped modelling and started going to school, and was able to study with wonderful teachers.

My life in Montana is so diverse from my Hollywood life that it even feels odd for me to go from one life to the other.

I think, as a woman, in your thirties, it's the best time. Women in their thirties are really beautiful. They are. I think that it's hard for people to love women when they get older. But it's easy for them to love men. Men have always been able to age and be perceived as more handsome. But really, we're no different; we age exactly the same.

I think sometimes I intimidate people. I've been told that. But I feel I'm the least intimidating person possible.

I think hidden underneath a lot of teachers are very sexy women.
