I used to look in the mirror and feel shame, I look in the mirror now and I absolutely love myself.

I don't really get into architecture in the hotel room. But maybe a little Feng Shui here and there.

Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths.

I make movies. I have a passion. Puppies and daisies don't accomplish anything. That's not me at all.

To be honest, I don't have data in my brain of how a relationship with a man is supposed to function.

I always thought I desperately wanted a husband and a big family, because I didn't have it growing up.

I've always loved butterflies, because they remind us that it's never too late to transform ourselves.

My whole life, I've wanted to feel comfortable in my skin. It's the most liberating thing in the world.

I still feel like I have a lot to prove. My biggest burning question is 'How much more are you capable of?'

When I was a kid, everything was so unplanned, my parents were so erratic, and my world was so inconsistent.

I no longer have the fear of being alone. It's cool to find out that you don't need a boyfriend to be happy.

When I lay my head on the pillow at night I can say I was a decent person today. That's when I feel beautiful.

Women shouldn't be burdened by what existed in their past, we should all learn how to turn pain into strength.

I never regret anything. Because every little detail of your life is what made you into who you are in the end.

I have always been fond of recognizing the spiritual side of someone's personality. It's a very lovely concept.

I've got Flossie dog, and she is great. She and I are still in love, 14 years. That's a relationship that works.

If you’re 35 and single and it’s a choice, it feels fine. So I didn’t settle with the wrong person yet. Big deal!

Any acting roles will be few and far between until my kids are older and by then, who knows what I'll want to do?

To be really great and interesting, you have to be a little crazy. I just don't think one comes without the other.

I think chemistry is finding something you love about a person and then transfering it to an in love kind of thing.

I'm just learning who I am and how relationships work and how to make them function. No different from anyone else.

I can't think of any issue that is more important than working to see that no schoolchild in this world goes hungry.

Putting your name on something and having no idea how it came about if someone else did all the work - that's not me.

The older you get, the few slumber parties there are, and I hate that. I liked slumber parties. What happened to them?

Every morning I stay in bed for ten minutes to ponder my place in the universe. Then I wash my face and check my karma.

I believe that everything happens for a reason, but I think it's important to seek out that reason - that's how we learn.

From my perspective, there's no reason to be afraid of aging, because if you age, you're lucky! The alternative is death.

It's embarrassing to go through any rebellious stage in front of people that you love and respect, and yet I'm glad I did.

Apparently vodka helps flowers last longer when they're dying. But you can put vodka in anything and it'll make it better.

I've approached so many things in my life with such intensity that I want to approach motherhood with dedication and focus.

I love the very exposed, humorous, imperfect, never-trying to-pretend-to-be-perfect journey that I have been on in my life.

I'm glad I lived such a full life before I settled down into a family because I got to enjoy it and get it out of my system.

I've been producing for 13 years. I've made a string of joyful movies with positive messages about comedy, love and romance.

It's never too late. Don't focus on what was taken away. Find something to replace it, and acknowledge the blessing you have.

People are like moths. First they are ugly and awkward, until they break out of their shell and become a beautiful butterfly.

Everything I touched in the kitchen turned out crappy, no matter how closely I followed the recipe or copied the cooking show.

The more you do speak from the heart, rather than thumping the agenda, people will listen or relate or open themselves up more.

If you're going to be alive and on this planet, you have to, like, suck the marrow out of every day and get the most out of it.

I love romantic comedies that are set in a world. It's not just a boy and a girl falling in love, out of love, and back in love.

Both of my marriages have taught me the same lesson twice over really harsh: listen to your instincts. Don't be a people pleaser.

I used to have a blankie, and when my mom had to wash it, I would sit outside the dryer and watch it go round and round, and cry.

I know certain actors are totally screwed up on drugs, yet it gets covered up. Why wasn't I excused for 'exhaustion' or 'the flu'?

I don't know anybody's road who's been paved perfectly for them, there are no manuals, you don't know what life has in store for you.

Everyone is like a butterfly, they start out ugly and awkward and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that everyone loves.

I love movies, I love being a part of them, and this is the one occupation I love living and playing in and stressing myself out over.

I just want to make sure I have a sense of balance between work and life, because work is my life and the lines can get really blurry.

I hate women who say they can eat whatever they want, because I don't relate to that at all. It isn't fair! I absolutely live for food.

Whether you're throwing up or breaking up, you want your girlfriend right there! I don't trust women who don't go to their girlfriends.

My own mum cared about Hollywood, and I didn't. I wanted to act, and I loved the creativity of it, but I didn't care for the lifestyle.

I love writing, directing and photography; if I could figure out a way to put the three things together, that's what I would love to do.
