“I believe that as much as you take, you have to give back. It's important not to focus on yourself too much.”
“Having your work be the basis of fame, that's a far more stable feeling.”
“Not to be too detailed, but I've had an ectopic pregnancy, miscarriages and I've had fertility treatments. I've done all the stuff you can possibly do to try get pregnant.”
“To be honest, I am completely natural. I have nothing in my face or anything. I wear sunscreen, and I don't smoke. I take care of myself and I'm very proud to say that.”
“I find standing and posing for photos very awkward.”
“Once I start putting all my little insecurities in my mind, I'm not actually acting. Then it's about me - and it should never be about me. It should be about the character.”
“You're not anyone in America unless you're on TV.”
“I just want to be nominated; beggars can't be choosers.”
“I never wore glasses except when I had to read a teleprompter at an awards show or drive, so I didn't notice much. I could exist in my head. It was kind of my escape from the world and my protection.”
“I think each role takes a little from you and circles around you for the rest of your life. I don't think you ever abandon any of them.”
“I don't believe in having body doubles for a film.”
“I think at some stage, I would love to have another child. I would love to settle into a relationship that was really important to me. I actually am not good at the balance at that.”
“Even from a very early age, I knew I didn't want to miss out on anything life had to offer just because it might be considered dangerous.”
“My life collapsed. People ran from me because suddenly it was 'Oh my God! It's over for her now!'”

“People can tell you what to do, but ultimately, we're all going to die, so how do you want to live?”
“You've just got to have a sense of respect for the person you have children with. Anger doesn't help anybody. Ultimately you have to say forgiveness is important, and honoring what you had together is important. But it's easy to say and harder to do.”
“I have a different approach. I don't file lawsuits because I really don't care.”
“Stay out of the sun, because it is the worst thing in terms of aging. I'm very medical. I come from a medical family.”
“I think it's important that we don't all have to hold our heads high all the time saying everything's fine.”
