Don't corral me, and I'll always come home. Just let me go out and play during the day.

I used to be an optimist, but now I know that nothing is going to turn out as I expect.

The universe, it balances. It makes sure you don't get a head that's too big. I love it.

My mother always told me, 'Don't get married. Make your own life. You don't need a man.'

Composing means you have a beginning, middle and end and a fluidity to what you're doing.

Great acting may be a turn-on, but it won't make me fantasize about the person for a week.

I can't selfishly take journeys anymore because I have to take a little boy along with me.

We all grow into the beautiful person that we’re supposed to be, some earlier, some later.

Nobody can make me cry in public. I'll punch them first before they make my mascara smear.

I love raw cookie dough, right out of the tube. The other thing I eat is marshmallow fluff.

My first review for the TV movie The Bionic Showdown said I was as interesting as a bus ride.

I keep saying, 'Don't change. Be who you are,' but society is really strong in their opinions.

I think most of us are raised with preconceived notions of the choices we're supposed to make.

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

My head is filled with so much crap, or facts that I find important, but that some others don't.

You don't have to give birth to someone to have a family. We're all family - an extended family.

Makeup is scary. When I do it myself, it's just mascara, and sometimes I forget even to do that.

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

I've been in enough films where the studio wanted that extra little cuteness to make it sellable.

My parents were opera singers and voice teachers, so growing up, I admired musicians and dancers.

To me, the good thing about living in L.A. is diversity in lifestyle choices, color, and religion.

I don't want to be seen as the kind of person who does things and then expects publicity in return.

If you spend enough time with yourself in silence, you'll be surprised what goes through your head.

I love the written word; I love when someone takes the time or leaves you a note or sends a letter.

I don't think we spend enough time in silence, just realizing what's floating around in our noggin.

If you can't pronounce it, you probably shouldn't be putting it in your body or in your environment.

Crushes are wonderful-they make you feel like you're two years old, and you say the stupidest things.

Fame means when your computer modem is broken, the repair guy comes out to your house a little faster.

It's nice we work in a place where you're allowed to keep coming back to have new experiences together.

Ironing is comfort. It's control. I'm a nutty person who likes to make sure everything is in its place.

Comedy is wonderful when you really nail it and you hear people laughing, but it's not always that easy.

I grew up in a way where I didn't realize there were limitations.I always thought I could speak my mind.

I can't cry on demand. I need to feel what I'm feeling. I can't just say, 'Give me a moment' and then cry.

Usually comedy is only available to us ladies in the romantic comedy. That's why I hate romantic comedies.

If a studio sees that a female can bring in audiences, then they're going to make movies with that person.

I have friends and family that are filled with massive amounts of integrity. And it shouldn't be an oddity.

My quest to find a great role for myself started long before this film [ "Our Brand Is Crisis"]came around.

A sequel is such a daunting thing, because you don't want to lose the magic and the charm of the first one.

I've made mistakes, and I know why I made them, but I made that choice. Nobody's ever made a choice for me.

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

I realize that once I stopped fighting the technical process of how to move my body, I made it choreography.

I consider myself sort of like a pseudo lawyer. Like, I'm convinced I can solve every case and argue my way.

I can install toilets. I know all about the wax ring. I can tile floors. I'm learning how to do basic wiring.

Would I like to go into space? No. Maybe I'd do it when I'm old and have done everything else on this planet.

My goal now is to remember every place I've been, only do things I love, and not say yes when I don't mean it.

I have no desire to maintain a lifestyle. I am a horrible celebrity. If I am out in public I dress like a pig.
