As a woman, when you embrace where you are in life, then I think the struggle [life] isn't so hard. If you're 42 and still think you're an ingenue, then you've got a problem.

I am a hopeless romantic. And I won't stop till I get it right.

I love a character that gives me a chance to grow and do something different.

Don't take yourself too seriously. Know when to laugh at yourself, and find a way to laugh at obstacles that inevitably present themselves.

I have to live for me. I have to do what I need to do for me, and I have stopped concerning myself with what people say.

I won't have a traditional marriage; I don't find the value in that anymore. But I am such a hopeless romantic and I really want love and I want a committed relationship, so I am going to reinvent marriage for myself.

After all, everybody has secrets and there are some things that nobody knows about you but only you, right?
