I'm trying to find a man to share my life with, but it's not been easy. I'm a 35-year-old woman with two small children.

When you know psychologically what [characters] are feeling, then that plays out on how you dress a lot of times.

I suppose the underlying current for me is the idea of not doing something I've done before. I call myself a character actor and I'm always trying to stay a character actor.

Honestly, people have said everything under the sun. I just want to do my work, raise my kids, and hopefully find somebody who I can share my life with again.

I'm not saying it's for everyone, but it's better to be alone than in a lousy relationship.

Sometimes as an actor you're struggling to make things work. That was never the case for me with [Big Little Lies script]. It just kind of flowed out.

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.
