It's so much easier to sit home and not exercise and criticize other people. What I love is inspiring people. People come up to me and say, 'I want to have two kids and wear a bathing suit and not feel terrible about myself. I see how hard you work and it makes me feel like I can do that too.'

I've borne these two kids into a particularly strange circumstance. They are going to have to fend off a lot and protect themselves from a lot of projections and prejudice about who they are, coming from the family that they come from.

Could I use some butter and cheese and eggs in my cooking without going down some kind of hippie shame spiral? Yes. Of course I could.

I spend a good portion of my dinner-party conversation defending America because no matter what the political agenda, it's still a fantastic, amazing place.

I really worry about the state of the planet and I wish everyone would make a concerned effort not to trash it.

I'm having so much fun building my makeup business, and it's a huge responsibility. It's not a side job. The more it can run without me, the more I'll be able to go back to acting. For now, I feel fulfilled.

My dad always said he couldn't remember a time when I did not want to act.

If you carve out what you expect, that's how you end up getting disappointed, not living fully in the present.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Image
If you read something bad about yourself and it stings you, I've learned that somewhere that's a judgment I'm holding about myself, so I'll try to work through that.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Image
I've always been very independent. Even in relationships, I'm focused on the quality of my life and not enmeshing myself so much with somebody else's experience. But I think there's incredible value in being married.

Image
My playground was the theatre. I'd sit and watch my mother pretend for a living. As a young girl, that's pretty seductive.

Image
Women were real box office stars in the '40s, more so than men. People loved to see women's films. I think it was better then, except for the studio system.

Image
I'll never forget it. I was starting to hike up the red rocks, and honestly, it was as if I heard the rock say, 'You have the answers. You are your teacher.' I thought I was having an auditory hallucination.

Image
I'm 43 years old, and I know who I am, and I own my mistakes. They're my business. And when somebody who doesn't know me has an opinion, it's none of my business.

One year I was given a birthday present I'll never forget - a cooking lesson from Jamie Oliver.

It is with hearts full of sadness that we have decided to separate.

I sort of look at some peers of mine and I think, 'No, you've got it all wrong!' I just want to tell them all to have babies and be happy and not get sucked into that Hollywood thing.

I do 45 minutes of cardio five days a week, because I like to eat. I also try for 45 minutes of muscular structure work, which is toning, realigning and lengthening. If I'm prepping for something or I've been eating a lot of pie, I do two hours a day, six days a week for two weeks.

I don't know if I came to this life with it or if it's something that came to me in my childhood, but I do feel that some of the things my parents said to me and how they raised me really stuck with me.

I moved to New York from California when I was 11, so initially I was seen as the California person for a while. I didn't feel like I was popular, but I did feel confident.
