I grew up knowing that I had the prettiest mother of anyone in my class.

Anything you can do in excess for the wrong reasons is exciting to me.

I don't like my face. I don't like to look at it.

I guess high verbal skills are highest in my list of necessary qualifications for a man - for anyone actually. I like to talk. And I don't necessarily move far, but I move fast.

I used to want to gamble, too, until I was 20 and could actually go to a casino. Then I wasn't so crazy about the attitude.

Generally someone will eventually tell you that you have to do something to help yourself.

I was born imagining myself with an apron on, with pies cooling on the window sill and babies crying upstairs. I thought that all that stuff would somehow anchor me to the planet, that it was the weight I needed to keep from just flying off into space.
