As an actress, you want to try new things. You don't want to repeat yourself. That becomes more important to you, as you get older.

When you finally accept that it's OK not to have answers and it's OK not to be perfect, you realize that feeling confused is a normal part of what it is to be a human being.

You go through spells where you feel that maybe you're too sensitive for this world. I certainly felt that.

Crazy isn't being broken, or swallowing a dark secret. It's you or me, amplified.

I was very depressed after breaking off my engagement with Johnny ten years ago. I was embarrassingly dramatic at the time, but you have to remember I was only 19 years old.

There was a time when I was 19 when I really, really, really thought I was going crazy. I was exhausted and going through a terrible depression.

I've learned that it's OK to be flawed, that life can be messy, that some days you glide and some days you fall, but most important, that there are no secret answers out there.

You have good days and bad days, and depression's something that, you know, is always with you.

You can't pay enough money to... cure that feeling of being broken and confused.

I am not a person who can really sit around and think about regrets because with every bad experience that you have, there is weirdly something good that comes from it.

I was inspired by lots of people, certainly in acting and in writing and stuff, but I never wanted to be somebody else.

Most of your healing journey will be about unlearning the patterns of self-protection that once kept you safe.

Each letter of the alphabet is a steadfast loyal soldier in a great army of words, sentences, paragraphs, and stories. One letter falls, and the entire language falters.

Forty for you, sixty for me. And equal partners we will be.

The great thing about the moon landing is that my grandmother got the first color TV in order to be able to see the moon landing that was in black and white.

If one asks for success and prepares for failure, one will get the situation one has prepared for.

I'm still the person who naively thinks if I can imagine it, I can have it.

Love is giving your kids your undivided attention and time

I don't want to be a stereotype; I want a character that's aspirational.

The greatest invention in the world is the mind of a child.

Thoughts are to the Desires as Scouts and Spies, to range abroad, and find the way to the things Desired.
