I didn't really [seriously] go out with any guys until I was 18 and met my ex-fiancé, Michael Weatherly.

Your husband or your wife is the only person you can really choose to be your family and to have unconditional love with them.

Actors are pulled in so many different directions that unless you both are absolutely into it through thick and thin and completely sure about each other, it's just hard. I've decided I'll never date an actor again.

I get all these screenplays that start 'Tawnya is in the shower. The water streams down her naked, perky breasts'. I don't think this is happening to Natalie Portman.

I actually wanted to be a producer because I like to run things.

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

I wish there were two of me and 48-hour days so I could get everything done. But for me, I have to not try and think that everything has to be 100% perfect all the time and leave room for error. As long as my kids feel loved and a priority, everything really is secondary.
