It's appalling that there should be hunger anywhere, but particularly in a country like America, where there is also such great wealth.

I always wear make-up as I've never seen the point of looking less than your best.

I love to see other women in pink. It's good for every shade of skin and hair.

It's very hard to get the dynamics where two people can stimulate each other and be happy.

Nothing irritates me more than chronic laziness in others. Mind you, it's only mental sloth I object to. Physical sloth can be heavenly.

I am a terrible mixture of being organized, controlling, but chaotic. My desk is monstrous.

I have three lives: actress, model, producer. Sometimes I'm aware that there's a fourth life, which is somewhat neglected, which is living a bit.

Spending time outdoors makes you feel great.

When bad things happen, it's the time when you get to work in the garden and sort out the pots from the weeds.

I like people to match my energy.

I've always been obsessed by beef jerky.

Almost certainly, however, the first essential component of social justice is adequate food for all mankind.

this present moment never comes to be and it never ceases to be, it is simply our minds that construct the continuity of thoughts we call time. In the present moment is nirvana.

When I was young, I was all about personal sovereignty and that junk, because there was no privacy and the available ideologies were collective, both socialism/communism and nationalism.

I think I have a pretty good take on popular culture that maybe makes up for the fact that I'm not a sound-bite politician for the nightly news.

I'm not perfect; no one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. I think you try to learn from those mistakes.

When you're reading, you're not where you are; you're in the book. By the same token, I can write anywhere.

What a blessing it would be if we could open and shut our ears...as easily as we open and shut our eyes.

I can't believe it! A real gourmet kitchen, and I get to watch!

It is the final proof of God's omnipotence that he need not exist in order to save us.

I don't watch myself gener­ally. I do something, see it once, and then I'll probably never see it again unless it's an accident.
