Physically, it completely changed me. I found strength that I never thought I had. And mentally, I mean, it's taught me just patience and letting go, and it's really changed my whole psychological outlook, I think.

One evening when I had my wood-burning stove going I realized I hadn't thought of dessert.

I cannot function if there is a physical mess around me. If everything is falling apart, I go on a cleaning frenzy.

I've learned so much from being a mom about the kind of person I want to be, the kind of woman I want to be. Motherhood has taught me mindfulness. If you just parent on instinct, you'll screw your kid up for life. You have to be so mindful.

I moved to New York from California when I was 11, so initially I was seen as the California person for a while. I didn't feel like I was popular, but I did feel confident.

There's something that sort of weirds me out about actors who want to be rock stars, and the other way around too.

People who are criticizing... don't really get it, because if they did, they would like it.
