When you see these people that are in the public eye all the time, it must get tiring.

Nobody wants you to stop, obviously because you're a moneymaking machine. But you have to make the decision and you have to move forward. So I took time off to have babies and do all that.

Let's say that, in reality, I'm basically very shy when it comes to men.

I don't care if I'm beautiful; I don't care what I am on the outside. It isn't about the outside.

I don't keep a press agent because I think people need to have a break from you.

I don't really try to predict what can and will happen with things. Sometimes you think something's gonna be a huge success, and it isn't. And sometimes you pay no attention to something whatsoever, and God just makes it into everything.

But I like to know that someone is stronger than I am. I want to be able to know that if I get tired, somebody is there to hold up the fort. I like knowing that I can't pick a refrigerator alone. God did not make me strong enough to do that.
