I think once you're a mother, you kind of always see your kids as a baby anyway no matter how old they get.

I felt all the things that other teenagers felt. I was insecure in lots of ways, over-confident in others. I was very emotional. Excitable.

Yes, my kids come first, but as a parent I need to come to them with a fresh mind. I can't be too exhausted or too tired. And I am a better parent when I have more energy.

I wish I had been more prepared, both for success and for failure, when I was younger.

When you say you're 40, you can't call yourself an ingenue any more.

And to be honest, most actors are incredibly solipsistic.

I don't like being alone. I haven't been alone since I got a boyfriend.
