Acting's not my whole life. My children definitely come first.

I paid more attention to the way I looked before my children were born. Afterward, it wasnt important to look exactly right.

That is why it's so fun to make movies... you get to do lots of things you would never do in your normal life.

Horror movies can be very interesting because they can deal with intangible subjects that are full of emotion.

It helps when 1 can send the children off to their fathers so I can support my new book with a national publicity tour. I started writing the book when my daughter was 5. It took me almost four years.

I think it is important to say that though, of course, it is wonderful to have children, it is a disservice to others not to also say how hard it is to do it alone.

I limited myself to introduce a change in my way of thinking and the way I see things. When I look at my child, I do it in a different way then when Im contemplating a chair. They are different... the child is a living being, and the chair is an object.
