I definitely believe in fate. And I believe what you put in is what you get in return. That's the way it's worked for me. As for the big picture - there's some sort of plan.

Theres nothing more romantic than Italian food.

I don't ever want to be doing the same sort of thing, I never want to be typecast, because I have way too much to give to be sort of, to always be the hot chick in the movie.

I've always wanted to shave my head for a role because I've wanted to play a character who had a shaved head. I don't know what the fascination is.

The celebrity body I most admire is Madonna's. She has the most incredible physique - and the woman's in her 50s!

Beauty is excrescence, superabundance, random ebulience, and sheer delightful waste to be enjoyed in its own right.

Thou has a thousand eyes and yet not one eye; Thou host a thousand forms and yet not one form.

Most people have this perception that you have to be out there running for an hour and a half every day. But you don't have to give up your career and family to run a marathon.

I don't know whether the world is full of smart men bluffing or imbeciles who mean it.
