I think the years leading up to 21 were a bit more fun than 21 and beyond might be.

I travel with chocolate - Godiva with caramel. When the craving hits, I have to have it. I share, but if I'm on my last one, I've been known to say, 'Sorry, I'm out!'

Leonardo DiCaprio as Jack in 'Titanic' was my childhood crush!

I like to travel any chance I get, even if it's just a local vacation to San Diego or Palm Springs or wherever. I just like to get out and do stuff and see the world.

I don't use a wallet. My money is just free-flowing in my bag.

I like to get a rise out of my mom with what I wear - I always go for the tallest heels or something super trendy.

The poet does not fear death, not because he believes in the fantasy of heroes, but because death constantly visits his thoughts and is thus an image of a serene dialogue.

Without love we could not survive. Human beings are social creatures, and a concern for each other is the very basis of our life together.

I tended to lean toward character work. I love to disguise myself.

It's kind of like a midlife crisis kind of thing. When you turn 40, you have to run the marathon, while all the parts still work properly.

I think the obstacles are the same as the opportunities, is the way we like to look at them.
