I can seriously spend five hours making one dinner.

You have to be the best of whatever you are, but successful, cool actresses come in all shapes and sizes.

I thought it was my job to give all the boys their first kiss.

I was a lot more critical of my body when it was probably pretty awesome. Why did I not ever wear jean shorts? That's so crazy. I was so skinny. I didn't have any cellulite what was I thinking? I was more willing to wear short skirts after I had my kids. I never wore them before. Ever. I was so self-conscious. Now I'm a lot more confident in my skin - because who cares? At the end of the day, it's so much time spent on something that really doesn't matter that much.

It feels like I'm starting to come into my own in terms of where I want to go artistically, toward more complicated, interesting characters.

I think that people who don't like animals tend to be selfish, but I'm biased.
