My kids have never seen me scream at anybody. They've never seen an argument. There's never been even a cold silence. And those are things that I grew up with because my parents did end up divorcing.

I'm just not one of those people who thought having biological children was that important, to me it was more about wanting to raise a child.

Mother elephants in the circus cannot help their babies, but we can.

I was able to support myself by acting alone about six years ago. Until then, I was just scraping by.

I love to hand sew. I sometimes make clothing for my children, which of course they grow out of in a matter of minutes. I thoroughly love it.

I’m not sad about any of my life. It’s so unconventional. It doesn’t look anything like I thought it would.

I actually washed my window once, and it fell through - it was being held together by the dirt.
