When I see some of the people who are glorified in magazines these days - who are so thin it's bordering on sickness - I just feel exhausted.

Smoking sucks! The one thing I would say to my kid is, ‘It’s not just that it’s bad for you. Do you want to spend the rest of your life fighting a stupid addiction to a stupid thing that doesn’t even really give you a good buzz?'

I'm not very good at being a wife because I break all the rules.

I want to stay in the moment and enjoy the great things that are happening.

I love playing a smart, ambitious, talented woman. Who doesn't? That's really fun for me.

Kids are a huge sacrifice; they change everything - but I'm ready to work for things of greater importance than going out to meet someone for dinner at 10 o'clock at night.

I dreamed about these moments, and I think I hoped I would have them, but you don't know. So when the lucky break hits, it's like being Cinderella and hopefully midnight doesn't come.
