When the bread basket comes to the table and I have a bite, people are like, "Oh, you eat bread?" I say, "Oh, my God, of course I eat bread. I'm human."

I'm a modern woman in the sense of I take care of myself, I'm fiercely independent, and I'm really ambitious. Yet I have these old-school thoughts in my mind.

I make conscious decisions to stay out of the limelight. Without my make-up I'm pretty much the girl next door.

I love a loose-fitting skirt with a cinched waist. A feminine silhouette is a no-stress zone - it's comfortable and I don't have to worry about wardrobe malfunctions!

Anchorman' is my favorite movie of all time and Ron Burgundy is one of my favorite characters of all time. It's my 'Gone With the Wind.

We shouldn't dwell on what is 'perfect.' We should celebrate our uniqueness.

If you took me to Coachella for our first date, it would probably be a done deal. It would be a sure thing.

I love having a man in my life, and being his woman at the end of the day. I know it's a dichotomy.

I try not to go crazy, but yes, I pay attention to what I eat

There's something very romantic to me about people who persevere, and who get told "no, no, no" on a daily basis, and still do it anyway.

The only one that believes in you, is you. Don't lean on how others see you to find belief in yourself.

When ideas come I write them when they don't come I don't.

It's time we did something to assert ourselves. After all, we do comprise 10% of the population.

Listen to my story and everything will come out true

We ought to recognise the profound gulf between the work to which we are 'called' and the work we are forced into as a means of livelihood.

I think I look better in darker clothes. And maybe the fact that I wear black so much makes me more aware of putting people at ease.

I love the weather, I love my '63 droptop Impala, I love the 405, and I love my guys.

Trends don't interest me.

Life is so short. Grudges are a waste of time. Laugh when you can, apologise when you should, and trust God with what you cannot change.

So many good songs get written fast, because you know exactly what has to work.
