They have a joy for life in Brazil unlike any country I've ever seen.

There are many people who live with terrorism every day.

The sky above us is something we have very little control of, and the space beyond is something we don't completely understand.

My mother put me on birth control as soon as I told her I wanted to go on it. I was 16. I was very young.

I'm an avid cook. Brazilian, some Italian, a little French. And I often throw dinner parties.

I love it when you have a lull in the day and you turn on the TV and a random movie is on that you either have never seen or haven't seen in years. Like "Coming to America" (1988) or "Misery" (1990) or "Moonstruck" (1987).

I don't have any powers other than the power of sex. And humor.
