Quote

I don't think, as a 15-year-old, you're that conscious about a lifetime career. I didn't think: I'm a serious actor. I never studied acting or anything when I was that age.

Anything that opens you up emotionally is going to impact your acting. Parenthood, becoming a mom, certainly does that.

We shot the movie [Waitress] in 20 days so there wasn't a lot of time to learn. There wasn't a lot of pie baking going on, at least not by me. But we always had pies while we were filming - we ate two different pies every day for lunch!

You instantly become less selfish. You can't be the biggest person in the world anymore-they are. [Motherhood] really grounds you.

Maybe I’m old, but to me, ‘going out’ means going out to dinner. It’s about the conversation: someone recognizing your intellect, the charm of flirting, and really speaking to somebody.

I feel better in my mind when I work out. It makes everything better.
