Nothing is all good or all bad, nothing is black or white, everything is just messy and human and difficult.

You gotta love yourself, because when you're hurting - you never know who's gonna be around to do the lovin' for ya. You gotta love yourself through the pain.

I used to be so hard on myself. So hard on myself. Just my own worst critic to the nth degree. Absolutely undermining my confidence in every moment. Bad tape in my head all the time.

The pain is always bringing me a lesson. If I listen to the lesson when the pain is manageable, the pain won't get gargantuan and flatten me entirely, because I will have received the message at the center. I receive it as gently as I can, because the cruelest thing that I do to myself is try to push myself through an experience.

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

My dad used to say, 'Just be yourself and you'll be fine,' but it's really, really true.

There are a lot of women who feel that they have done all the work in their relationship only for someone else to step in and take the love and credit for it.
