I think it's important that we don't all have to hold our heads high all the time saying everything's fine.

I have a passion for my work, and that can seep into you. It's almost as if you're drawn to it.

At this time in my life, I want to be giving to my relationships. And out of that, whatever work you do prospers because you have more to give. There's something very primal about giving birth. It puts you in a state of being very raw.

I still feel vibrant and alive that way. I'm in a marriage where we put an enormous amount into our marriage. I always say, there's me, there's my husband, and then there's the "us," the us that we create. That's what we really take care of. We never, ever take it for granted. We do everything we can to be together, not to be separated for periods of time. We're just a very, very tight family unit, and we're really kind to each other. I think it's so underrated; people don't appreciate the necessity of that in society now.

I find standing and posing for photos very awkward.

You're not anyone in America unless you're on TV.

I don't like changing with the wind; I like sticking to my own self.
