I never fit in with my peer group. I never hung out with kids my age - I always wanted to hang out with my mom and her girlfriends.

The time I'm not spending with my kid has to be worth it, so when I sat down with my agents after I was ready to go back to work, I told them: It's all about the directors.

I could have a one-night stand, and I'm the kind of girl who looks over in the morning and is like, Do you really have to be here? I don't need to cuddle and do all that stuff because I know what it is and I don't try to make it more. I feel like a lot of women try to make it into more, so they don't feel so bad about just wanting to have sex.

It's really, really, really difficult to have the same occupation as the person you're with - especially when you're both actors.

I basically went out with any guy who asked me because hardly anyone ever asked me out.

If I didn't get a job, between 16 and 18, that wasn't significant, I was just going to go to college. I didn't want to be a struggling actor at 36 with five kids, doing something I hated. You see the story so much. It's such a vicious business to be in when you're not meant to be in it.

I don't really have a problem with just wanting sex. Never have. Even when I was a virgin and wanted to marry the first guy who I slept with, I never passed any judgments about that. But now I'm done [with dating around].

For me, makeup is about being your best self. If I wake up in a foul mood and have to deal with temper tantrums and an exploding diaper--I know taking 10 minutes to get my game face on will reset my stress levels. It's a chance to check in and remind myself--you got this.

Free driving is like an extreme sports version of snorkeling, ... That's about 50 feet deep. And basically what you do is you hold your breath and you wear a weight belt and go down as fast as possible and hold your breath for minutes at a time.

A parent knows better than any book or expert what their kid really needs.

My parents were young and liberal and knew I was going to drink anyway, so they let me do it at home.

I've got cousins galore, Mexicans just spread all their seeds and the women just pop them out

You have to be the best of whatever you are, but successful, cool actresses come in all shapes and sizes.

I really like older British guys - I don't think any of them would ever have a problem with crying in front of a woman or saying I love you or You hurt me or emotional stuff like that.

Being perfect is being flawed, accepting it, and never letting it make you feel less than your best.

It feels like I'm starting to come into my own in terms of where I want to go artistically, toward more complicated, interesting characters.

Some [actors] are really a pain in the ass today. I held out on getting an assistant forever because I didn't want to seem demanding... or like a pain in the ass. I didn't want someone working for me to hate me.

We all have a mission and a purpose across all of our different industries that we're in, and you can see that in every entrepreneur, certainly the ones that get through and get chosen. And I think that's ultimately what technology is here to do, is to enhance our lives and make it better.

All moms need confidants who are in their shoes and can relate to what they're going through. You need a night out together to be who you are, and not feel like you have to be the career woman, wife and mommy--all at once. After all, we're not superwomen.

I did research when I was pregnant with my first daughter and was horrified by the chemicals in products, even those meant for babies. I would have to go to 50 different places just to get my house and my kid clean.

Like many other moms out there, I try to buy safe products for my family, but that can't be the only solution. You can't hire a team of scientists to do your shopping for you. At some point the government has to step in and ensure that chemicals are safe before our children are exposed to them.
