'Notorious' is a masterwork. I can watch it every day.

The more I resist anything, the stronger it gets.

I think you choose how you walk through this life. I think if you choose to participate in a paradigm that is looks-based, if you're an actor, then it can be empowering in some ways, and it can be really limiting in some ways in terms of time and longevity.

If I'm feeling hurt, sad, lonely, depressed, and then I shame myself for feeling that, then that's a black hole for me. I really have worked a lot to meet pain with both gratitude and gentleness.

From the fear and constriction that's sort of always pulling us back and keeping us in old modalities, I feel like any expansive act of kindness, thoughtfulness, and generosity, helps tip the scale toward a more conscious, liberated existence for everyone.

I have to meditate before I go to bed, always. I have to let the day go and let the eternal in.

It's a lot of fun to just say to people, proudly, 'I get to play the First Lady.' It's just fun to say.
