Forget the past. You can never predict what the future is going to be. Live for the moment.

I love that ["Big Little Lies"] is about women coming together and making something happen very quickly, with friendship being the core of it.

Don't you worry about a thing, my darling. You live your life.

My choices in films are spontaneous.

I kept looking for happiness, and then I realized: This is it. It's a moment, and it comes, and it goes, and it'll come back again. I yearn for things, but at the same time I'm just peaceful.

I auditioned for the role of an angel in the Nativity play at school. I didn't get it. I auditioned for Mary; didn't get it. So I made up the character of the sheep who sat next to Baby Jesus.

I refuse to let what happened to me make me bitter.
