As a woman now, I want to share things. I have girlfriends in their twenties, and I say, "Ask me anything. You can learn from the things I did wrong, and you can learn from the things you think I'm doing right. Take whatever you want and make it your own."

The thing you hate about yourself tends to be the thing that everyone likes about you.

An actor who's a control freak, that doesn't work. We have to be malleable. We cannot come in and try to control or dominate.

I would describe myself as emotional and highly strung. If something upsets me, it really upsets me. If something makes me angry, I get really angry. But it's all very upfront. I can't hide it. I'm also loyal and I hope I'm fun.

And I am standing in front of my mother, and my whole life I have wanted to make my mother proud. And now I'm going to make my daughter proud.

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

These different people that I play become the loves of my life.
