I have a lot of male friends. That's good. But that's all I want right now. Keep that sort of thing away from me.
My career is every housewife's dream. Someone drives you to work, when you get there they make you look beautiful, they feed you... and they bring you anything you want. And you get to finish sentences, something it's simply not possible to do around three children. I'm so lucky!
If they have covered your face with latex, you have to control yourself mentally so you won't think. If you start thinking, you will succumb to panic. I had a bit of a cold, and frankly I didn't have a good time.
For a marriage to work, for a relationship to work, it requires commitment and a lot of work. There are times when it's not so great, and times when it is. But there has to be more better times than worse. In Canada, I'm the only one of my friends not married. In Los Angeles, I'm a success story. I've had two long relationships. And I'm OK.
Now I feel like one of those Rodeo riders. I'm on top of a wild horse that won't stop jumping and kicking, and it is really exciting but I grab on to his ears and his mane and I'm screaming. The result is fun, but it's also scary!
Look, I know he's been married three times before. I accept it, but I don't want it driving up the driveway.
I'm the type of person who likes to know exactly how many steps she will have to take and when she should look up.
I didn't start really making changes in my life until I was actually in my mid-20s. And all of a sudden I was like, wait a minute. I was trying so hard to be what I thought I was supposed to be, instead of just allowing myself to be what I-what I was or what I am.
I didn't plan to act, but I'm glad I'm doing it-and I just want to keep getting better.
I have nothing intelligent to say.
I know that in order to be considered successful, youre supposed to do two or three movies a year. I only work once every year-and-a-half, sometimes two years. I have children to raise.
I paid more attention to the way I looked before my children were born. Afterward, it wasnt important to look exactly right.
Horror movies can be very interesting because they can deal with intangible subjects that are full of emotion.
I limited myself to introduce a change in my way of thinking and the way I see things. When I look at my child, I do it in a different way then when Im contemplating a chair. They are different... the child is a living being, and the chair is an object.
