Women do not like CDs of live music. We only like the original recordings. If a song sounds different from the version we fell in love with, then it's awful.
Along with age comes more confidence, so it kind of works out.
Basically, I just want to do a movie where I'm surrounded by women.
I didn't think I was a humorless shrew in 'Knocked Up.' I think the women are just as funny as the men are in that movie.
I'd never want to go back to being in my twenties or thirties. I was lost and confused and uncomfortable in my own skin.
I honestly don't know where the high voice thing came from in the first place. Why do people have high voices? Emotional problems? What is that? It could easily be that. And now I'm getting more normal, and my voice is getting deeper.
Once a month, I get together with my girlfriends and we usually check into a hotel or go to someone else's house. We can talk for 15 hours, and it just flies by.
When you have little kids, you lose friends because you're so busy, but as they get older, you realise how important it is to have your girlfriends around.
I like being married to someone who does what I do, and we can talk for hours about all of this stuff that I struggle with and all this stuff that he struggles with because we're struggling with the same things. If I was married to a banker, I don't know what we'd talk about.
I've known my two best girlfriends since junior high school.
I don't quite fit in in like a pure dramatic thing, but I still think of myself sometimes as sort of a dramatic actress.
There aren't good roles for women: the female parts aren't developed: the women are serving the men.
I have lunches with my girlfriends, who just turned 40, and some of those lunches, we're crying and screaming about our husbands, saying we want to leave them and run away. And then, other lunches, we're fine and love our husbands and are happy with our lives.
Thank God I didn't put my career over family. That would have been the biggest mistake of my life. I'm really happy it went the way it did.
