I think I always knew that I wanted to adopt. It never meant that I didn't want to have my own children - I always felt that if I were in the right circumstances then I would totally have my own children.

Don't let other people's conversations about what you're doing or you've done be part of your own conversation.

When you can literally Google anything, you don't feel like you have to go see it in person. You can do a lot of traveling in your bedroom, but you're not touching anything and you're not feeling it.

Sometimes your characters in films do things that you wouldn't do. You're not playing yourself all the time.

Hopefully my fan base doesn't lock me into 'Twilight,' you lose yourself. You should do things for you, and I have been really lucky to have things that really rock me and really move me falling into my lap.

People are obsessed. There's an incredibly large group of people that spend most of their time considering other people's lives. It's strange to me.

But I'm glad I'm not one of those actresses who is just so ready to open up for everyone.
