I'm a Midwesterner! Not being able to have a cheeseburger once in a while would be torture!

I don't have slim children. I have hearty ones.

I love my babies so much that I could kiss them all day long..as a job. I could be a professional baby kisser. No joke.

I just saw a guy filling up his gas tank with one hand and smoking with the other. Seriously?

I love what I do and I think it shows. As my kids get older, they can see me as a mom who loves working.

Listen, the obvious thing to remember is without dark, there is no light, and without light, there is no dark.

Maternal health remains a staggering challenge, particularly in the developing world. Globally, a woman dies from complications in childbirth every minute.

It’s not a guy and a girl, or a girl and a girl or a guy and a guy - it’s a relationship.

The end of anything is not fun because there's a nostalgia to it and everything else. Even the end of a bad relationship can feel so, so, so sad.

My husband always smells good to me.

Anyone who thinks money can't buy happiness has never owned a cat [or any pet].

You can't reinvent yourself using spare parts..."--Barry Randall from My Father's Ashes

A pair of powerful spectacles has sometimes sufficed to cure a person in love.

Remember that nobodies are the new somebodies.

Black is a color of power and strength, and to see all those players, with the captains linking their arms in front - it's a powerful picture.

Imagination is the most powerful tool you have. You learn it from all the greats. The Star Wars films are secretive. Anything J.J. Abrams does is secretive. Those guys haven't done too poorly.

I work for the public, for the people who are paying to go to the cinema, rather than for the critics.

All these years, I've been opening the window and making love to the world.

Watch the old man. Watch how the old man keeps the guys who aren't playing happy.

Just as women needed the help of the law to enter the workplace in the 20th century, men will need the help of the law to love their children in the 21st century.
