I like the privacy of my life and I protect it quite vigilantly.

I love just sitting quietly meditating. With an hour free, it depends. I love getting down on the floor and playing with my kids.

The accumulation of experience gives you a debt in terms of compassion. I am very fortunate, and I feel dedicated to giving back to other women. Wherever I am now, I make sure I visit a women's shelter. But I don't want to do it in a frivolous way.

I wouldn't want to be married to me, but luckily Tom Cruise does.

Stay out of the sun, because it is the worst thing in terms of aging. I'm very medical. I come from a medical family.

I didn't do so well in the academic world, so I think the only way I could express myself was through visual art - anything I could get my hands on, whether it was glassblowing, sculpture, painting, or photography. I always wanted to be a painter. Or a farmer.

I'm now so much more capable of receiving love and giving it in a far different way.
