Most of us spend our lives protecting ourselves from losses that have already happened.

Treat yourself as if you already are enough. Walk as if you are enough. Eat as if you are enough. See, look, listen as if you are enough. Because it's true.

It's never been true, not anywhere at anytime, that the value of a soul, of a human spirit, is dependent on a number on a scale.

Awareness is learning to keep yourself company

What you pay attention to grows. Pay attention to your loveliness, your magnificent self. Begin now.

Change happens when you understand what you want to change so deeply that there is no reason to do anything but act in your own best interest.

If you pay attention to when you are hungry, what your body wants, what you are eating, when you've had enough, you end the obsession because obsession and awareness cannot coexist.

We eat the way we eat because we are afraid to feel what we feel.

Awareness is learning to keep yourself company. And then learn to be more compassionate company, as if you were somebody you are fond of and wish to encourage.

Reading keeps me sane. Growing up, it was my scape, my alternative; it provided both rebellion and peace.

Sure, I have a lot of friends that are actors. Just because I guess I run into a lot of actors in my work.

These are challenging times for all Americans. We face the specter of war abroad and a steady stream of bad economic news at home.

The problem with unfilled dreams is that they give us tunnel vision. We focus on ourselves, and that can be depressing and discouraging place to look.

You know... when one speaks your name very fast, it just sounds like just incredible

Don't get the green disease of envy. Don't be fooled by success and money. Don't let anything come between you and your work.

I really appreciate anyone trying to inject art into mainstream film.
