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

Your imperfections are what make you beautiful.

There's something sexy about a gut. Not a 400-pound beer gut, but a little paunch. I love that.

To me, true beauty isn't something that will wash off in the shower at the end of the day. It's something that's still there, before you go to bed and wake up in the morning. And, you know, they always say that's inner beauty, but it is.

Women should do a lot more fighting. I don't think it's fair that we can't get into a good fight.

I feel like when you have an unauthorized police badge and something that looks like it could be a concealed weapon in the small of your back that when you, someone crosses you, pisses you off, road rage, I think just the slight badge and the little moving away of the jacket and not losing eye contact does amazing things.

I'm simply the mom who makes the lunch, drives to school, finds where the toys are, washes the clothes, and I'm here to play. And that's all I should be.
