When I was a struggling actress in New York in my 20s I worked in a burger joint called Diane's Uptown. I actually loved waiting tables. I still keep who I was in my mind and never take anything for granted.

Your imperfections are what make you beautiful.

Motherhood is beautiful. Everything [my son] does makes me so happy.

I've learned that success comes in a very prickly package. Whether you choose to accept it or not is up to you.

Anyone who has been given the gift of being opposite an actor who gives and gives, it just makes you better.

I go to bed wearing a very baggy one-piece cheetah suit, just because it makes my son laugh. My sexy lingerie has been locked in a drawer for a while.

If you don't have kids and animals, you don't truly know what life is about.
