Katherine Heigl

“Kids are a huge sacrifice; they change everything - but I'm ready to work for things of greater importance than going out to meet someone for dinner at 10 o'clock at night.”

“Hollywood likes to label everyone so you're easier to identify.”

“The mouthier I got, the more I'd be celebrated.”

“Of course, of course I'm grateful. How can I not be grateful? I have been afforded such a wonderful life.”

“I totally wouldn't mind being able to wave my hand head to toe and have, like, a whole new outfit.”

“I've had paranoid panic attacks.”

“I pride myself on being kind.”

“So much about living life, to me, is about humility and gratitude. And I've tried very hard to have those qualities and be that person and I'm just so disappointed in myself that I allowed it to slip.”

“If I have to be focused and watch what I say, then I have to be comfortable.”

“I'm terrible with my workout regime and following it strictly. I'm terrible with a healthy diet and following it strictly. I'm terrible on the weekends about getting up at reasonable hours and all of those things. But, when it comes to my work and the discipline it takes to get to work on time - I hate unprofessionalism.”

“My mother is a great source of advice and wisdom and consolation for me.”

“I'm not terribly sentimental.”

“I have my moments, but generally speaking I shy away from being too lovey dovey.”

“I always assume I look better than I actually do. I'll feel pretty good about myself when I leave the house, then I'll see a picture and think, 'Crap, I had no idea that's what I was looking like.'”

“Even if you plan a marriage and a family, you are never quite prepared for the reality versus how you imagined it. In a lot of ways it's better, and in a lot of ways it's worse. That's life, right?”

“If I spread myself too thin, I'm not a good actor, I'm not a good mother, and I'm just really high-strung - and everybody hates me.”

“I prefer a kiss that is so much more than just a tongue in your mouth.”

“When I see some of the people who are glorified in magazines these days - who are so thin it's bordering on sickness - I just feel exhausted.”

“Marriage is actually really terrifying. It doesn't work for many people.”

“I don't make big grand gestures, generally.”
