I am grateful to learn from their mistakes, because I am not injecting s- into my face. I see them and my heart breaks. I think, 'Oh God, if you only know how much older you look.' They are trying to stop the clock and all you can see is an insecure person who won't let themselves just age. I also have a fiancé who will put a gun to my head if I touch my face in any way.

I really kind of pride myself on figuring stuff out pretty quickly but I couldn't, couldn't. I just had no idea.

When we're younger we take our bodies for granted because they're top-notch. You don't always think in the long run.

A relationship isn't going to make me survive. It's the cherry on top.

Being this side of 40 feels like what I should have felt being this side of 25: in my body, in my heart, happy with my life, and OK with whatever bumps in the road present themselves.

A man divorcing would never be accused of choosing career over children.

When you try to avoid the pain, it creates greater pain.
