In all honesty, I grew up a certain way. I never had to worry about money... that was my reality.

I make lots of casseroles that have protein, veggies, carbs and good fats all together.

I'm so blessed to have as many jobs that I have, but I do agree that there needs to be some downtime.

I want to be a cool mom.

There are days when I struggle with wanting to be a full-time, stay-at-home mom, and feeling guilty about that because I work.

During my first pregnancy, I spent a lot of time worrying about how big I was getting and how I would lose it afterwards.

I love my mom. My mom loves me. We don't have an easy relationship. I don't think we ever will, but I'd rather have a complicated, misunderstood relationship than have no relationship at all.

You know, you only get one family, and you have to make it work.

I'm never as happy as when I'm pregnant. I literally would have 10 babies if I could!

Sometimes I do envision just being a stay at home mom but not working isn't an option for me currently.

I look at Liv Tyler and think 'It's not fair', because I can't find a flaw on her. And on top of that she seems nice, so it's really not fair.

Lena knew she had spent too much of her life in a state of passive dread, just waiting for something bad to happen. In a life like that, relief was as close as you got to happiness.

No one should ever be allowed to make you feel unworthy of becoming wealthy. Your wealth lies mainly upon your understanding of your worth.

No human being, particularly a young, attractive woman, is so alone that there is no one to miss her when she disappears.

Time has a funny way of airbrushing relationships, removing all the things that were wrong so when you look back it looks much better than it really was.

I love the normalcy of Cleveland. There's regular people there.

I don't kind of want to be known as a one-trick pony who just does the adult-alternative song once a year that makes it onto the radio and people sort of think it's nice.

From virtue all happy states arise.

To be totally without stress is to be dead.

Mankind are greater gainers by suffering each other to live as seems good to themselves, than by compelling each to live as seems good to the rest.

I've been going around the world; I've been to China, I sang at the General Assembly, the Security Council.
