I work hard and support myself.

I love when I'm writing and I'm cringing because I know I'm doing something right.

I wouldn't say that I was an actress. I tried to be an actress. I really didn't have the gift.

In a way I'm lucky because when people suggest I won't be able to do something I have no choice but to show them they are wrong. If I say I'm doing it, I'm doing it. No matter how hard it is.

When you create, it comes from this deep part of you, and your job is you, and so when you don't get heard it can feel bad and frustrating and you have to somehow keep the confidence up.

Work very very hard. This business is no joke. Make sure you know what you want or you might be taking someone else's view instead of your own.

It was fun to create characters who had truth to them but were also made up so as not to completely offend!

I'm pretty sure a lot of directors would be thrilled to cast age appropriate roles. I am.

Actresses feel immense pressure to keep up. Nobody wants someone who doesn't know how to market themselves.

The celebrity culture demands a camera-ready-at-all-times look or else the photo is circulated in a demeaning headline.

The pressure for an actress to look good and be skeletally thin is insane and unrealistic and it's a subject I've been fascinated by.

Now that I think about it, this might all have been inevitable. The reason we all ended up here, the reason I couldn't leave her alone...it all had to be a ridiculous fairy tale.

There is nothing permanent except change.

We aren't addicted to oil, but our cars are.

I sang in a rock band when I was training as a lawyer. You know, not professional, we just did it for fun. We just did gigs all over Edinburgh and some in Glasgow and some at festivals.

Only look to Jesus. He died for you, died in your place, died under the frowns of heaven, that we might die under its smile.

Death isn't peaceful; it is just nothing. Everything is gone. No more sunrises, no more hopes, no more fears. Nothing.

What I like to do is to try to win as many tournaments and as many majors as I can, and with him [Tiger Woods] in the field, it just gives it more credibility, whatever it is I am able to accomplish.

I'm really not tailored for responsibility.

For you see, each day I love you more. Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow.

I'll take thy word for faith, not ask thine oath; Who shuns not to break one will sure crack both.
