In life we want to challenge ourselves...

Right now the institution of marriage feels very one-sided, and I want to live in a country where we all have equal rights. I have so many friends who are gays and lesbians who would so badly want to get married, that I wouldn't be able to sleep with myself [if I got married before they could].

You know, I don't think any mother aims to be a single mom. I didn't wish for that, but it happened.

I hate actors who come and quote Nietzsche.

Men are like fine wines - the older they get, the better they get.

I don't really talk about my personal life and I don't really talk about my relationships. I'm not a big partier. I like the simplicity of my life, and I've chosen the kind of life I really want to live. I don't think my life is boring at all.

Pride comes from a place of real acknowledgment that somebody's actually living their life for themselves, and I want to be that example for my son.
