Thats when you know youve found somebody special. When you can just shut the f**k up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence.

Desperation is the perfume of the young actor. It's so satisfying to have gotten rid of it. If you keep smelling it, it can drive you crazy. In this business a lot of people go nuts, go eccentric, even end up dead from it. Not my plan.

We're in an environment where everyone gets compartmentalized very quickly.

When I was first going through my separation, someone said to me, 'It will take you half as long as you were in the relationship before you'll feel better.'

More than just romantic comedy, I like romances: drama romance, romance comedy, comedy romance. I also go to the movies to escape. There are times when you go to learn, when you go to be moved, you go to be transported, and there are really times when you go to escape. And I personally escape more happily into a romance than I do violent movies.

Change is usually preceded by some kind of drift.

I think everybody has a hard time connecting, but as you get older and you want more and you expect more and you know more, it's just different. If you start wanting too much from it without it naturally unfolding, then that makes it bad. If you start not wanting anything, then you are not serious. I mean it's just this conundrum of issues.

To be with a man who hasn't tried every line, who hasn't broken up with a woman every which way you can break up with them, is kind of nice.

Urban women don't breed in their twenties. Shortly after, I became a mother too, which is why I was probably so child friendly.

It's an interesting thing to be in your forties and evaluate success and take ownership of some disasters and some pain and try to forgive a little bit - yourself and others.
Uma Thurman
Image
Before I had my child, I thought I knew all the boundaries of myself, that I understood the limits of my heart. It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out, to realize your love is inexhaustible.

My washing machine overwhelms me with its options and its sophistication.

Nobody seemed to have any perspective any longer. Those were low points. But we got through it.
