The power of work, and the power of creativity can be your salvation.
I look for roles that show women as independent, informed, and free to make their own decisions.
Somehow destiny comes into play. These children end up with you and you end up with them. It's something quite magical.
I wear sunscreen, and I don't smoke. I take care of myself. And I'm very proud to say that.
I'm now so much more capable of receiving love and giving it in a far different way.
In my heart I'm independent, a bit of a rebel, a nonconformist.
I credit literature for the reason I act because that was the door to me saying, ‘Oh! I can be somebody else. I can exist as someone else.’
I don't really celebrate fame because I get enough attention.
It's a very brave thing to fall in love. You have to be willing to trust somebody else with your whole being, and that's very difficult, really difficult and very brave.
You've just got to have a sense of respect for the person you have children with. Anger doesn't help anybody. Ultimately you have to say forgiveness is important, and honoring what you had together is important. But it's easy to say and harder to do.
I'm not sure what the future holds but I do know that I'm going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate. As my dad said 'Nic, it is what it is, it's not what it should have been, not what it could have been, it is what it is.'
I always wanted to get married with just candles! I think candlelight is the most beautiful light there is and there's something very spiritual about it.
When you relinquish the desire to control your future, you can have more happiness.
I've always been interested in our flaws as human beings, just as much as the virtues.
