'Suddenly Susan' is my life.

Have faith in your own thoughts.

Two eggs do not an omelette make

I could never, ever have an abortion.

If my jeans could talk, would I be embarrassed?

You are only as pretty as you are nice and smart.

Modeling is the world that I feel most welcome in.

I was Hannah Montana's mother ... Where did I go wrong?

Humour has always been a self-defence mechanism for me.

You don't necessarily have to be in misery to be talented.

People think of me as a mannequin. All show and no substance.

I took my work seriously, but not as a craft. More as a life.

People think of me as a mannequin, all show and no substance.

I have a place in the Broadway community that can only be earned.

The thing about Broadway, they always welcome you with open arms.

Depression is so smart - it uses all your references and patterns.

People say, 'I love my wrinkles.' I don't love my wrinkles - come on!

If my girls are rude, it's over. There is no place in the world for it.

I was the first child at four at a modeling agency, so I had an advantage.

Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life.

There are no dumb male questions. There are dumb males, but not dumb male questions.

Honesty is the quality I value most in a friend. Not bluntness, but honesty with compassion.

From the time I could speak, I knew I wanted to have children. It was just an innate desire.

As I'm getting older, I'm enjoying my vices so much more because I feel like I've deserved them.

I just felt as though I would never be happy again, and as if I had fallen into a big black hole.

Don't waste a minute not being happy. If one window closes, run to the next window- or break down a door.

The thing I'm the most proud of in my personal life is that my daughter actually thinks that I'm fabulous.

It's okay to be successful and it's also okay to be happy with your success even though it might not be easy.

I look back at myself, this innocent person, and I think, 'Gosh, she's okay.' I handled a lot, and I'm still here.

Too many people use abortion as a form of birth control. And that's very wrong. I could never, ever have an abortion.

Eight shows a week is daunting, and it can be terrifying. But it just instills such a sense of confidence and growth.

My mother totally protected me as a model. She took me on every look-see, she was there on the set if I wanted her to be.

We all struggle. I'm not saying any successful woman's life is without struggle. But it doesn't mean it has to be miserable.

My younger years of modeling were really just filled with fun trips. I was doing catalogues for Alexander's and Bloomingdale's.

I think I'm going to have to live vicariously through my daughter's rebellion because I certainly never did go through adolescence.

We live in New York. To be able to have a steady job and take your kids to school, and be around and work hard, is the perfect life.

I don't like to leave my children for long periods of time. It's made me more picky about roles that are close, especially on television.

Louis Malle was the best filmmaker I've ever worked with. He was such an artist. He was dealing with the theme of innocence and experience.

The very damaging, frightening part of postpartum is the lack of perspective and the lack of priority and understanding what is really important.

I'm a hands-on mum and I'm lucky to be able to be that. I can remember the things my mum used to do with me and that time together is so important.

The most rewarding thing is being on Broadway. I went into Cabaret as a replacement and was really challenged beyond anything I could have imagined.

It's nice, it gives you a feeling of security so that if something breaks we know we can always call a guy over and he'll bring a drill or something.

I have always liked lionesses. Female lions have always seemed like the best. They were really strong and took care of their babies and are beautiful.

I was such a nerd, a complete geek, but then I was lucky enough to have a fancy career, where I can be like 'See, I'm not a nerd. Look, I'm in 'Vogue.'

I've never been naturally fashion conscious. I'm the kind of person who sees a whole outfit in a magazine, runs out and buys it but looks like a clown.

The difficulty of IVF or of any fertility issues is the hope and the shattered hope, the dream that it might happen this time and then it doesn't happen.

I absolutely would categorize myself as one of successful professional females. I think you can be successful and still be extremely present in a healthy life.

I've never found therapy to be a sign of weakness; I've found the opposite to be true. The willingness to have a mirror held up to you definitely requires strength.

What does good in bed mean to me? When I'm sick and I stay home from school propped up with lots of pillows watching TV and my mom brings me soup - that's good in bed.

I'm just starting to realize the type of work that I want to do. Not everyone can fit into the sitcom world because it's so fast-paced, but it feels comfortable to me.
