I was a total education geek. I loved school. I loved learning. I loved doing homework. All of my books and notebooks from high school are underlined and highlighted and there are notes all over the margins. And you know, I was a theater kid too. I was all over the place.
To be happy, it first takes being comfortable being in your own shoes. The rest can work up from there.
It devastates me now that I have been reduced to a Hollywood statistic - another joke marriage.
People like to say, "Well, you're a celebrity. You should really pick a cause." I felt that's like telling a doctor, "Well, you should focus on one area of the body." Current issues, global issues, political issues, women's issues - whatever one you want to talk about. It's systemic, you know?
I'd rather hang out with five people that I love than with 400 strangers at a club who are all doing the up-and-down inspection thing. They appraise everybody from head to toe - the outfit, the handbag, the shoes, how much they weigh... I can't stand it!
All the sudden high-impact stress can really take a toll on your body. So if you still want to be active and get in a good workout, go to a yoga class or pilates class, or get in some strength and conditioning.
You never know what a movie is going to look like when you're shooting it and you just hope it's going to look like it's supposed to be.
People just deserve to be treated with kindness.
I get to do what I love every day. I get to crawl into someone else's head and I love that.
Of course, everybody makes mistakes, and we've all been young and stupid. But people need to have a sense of respect, particularly in this business, because hundreds of people are ready to take your place at any time. Maybe some people should think about that.
I'm not much of a revenge person, because I think when you start with revenge it cheapens what you've been through. My rule is to hold your head high and never stop looking that person in the eye, because they know and you know, and you're still the professional. And they can just feel like an ass for the rest of their lives. That's my favorite thing to do.
Me, I'd prefer to have a good reputation rather than getting press for being scandalous, getting drunk in public, staying out late and so on.
Life throws some curveballs at you and you go where it takes you.
