It just gets frustrating playing the girlfriend, It's just this awful feeling, sitting in your house, waiting for a script to come. I like to be more proactive.

'Chasing Amy' was an amazing role, but then after that, I went and did 'Big Daddy' and you're the girlfriend or you're the best friend. I wasn't getting the Nicole Kidman roles.

I want to feel passion, I want to feel pain. I want to weep at the sound of your name. Come make me laugh, come make me cry... just make me feel alive.

I was never one of those people who thought, 'What I really want to do is direct.' It never occurred to me.

I like decorative, functional things that I feel comfortable in.

It's not like you can wake up and realize, 'Oh, I want intimacy,' and then it happens that day.
