thinking feelings riding
There are so many different reasons as to why I love riding trains. But I think ultimately it's the romantic feeling of it. There's something about it that just transports me into old films.
sides our-relationship obvious
It's like our relationship is always about the other side that isn't the obvious side.
car easy-route thanks
All the times being like, 'Who rented this car and why are we going to this place?' You take the easy route and go, 'Oh, thanks for the champagne. I'll have another.
asking body-image remember
I remember everyone asking, 'What did you do to get so thin? You looked great.' I looked emaciated.
my-family
In my family, I'm short.
beautiful thinking chihuahua
When I see a woman who is all gaunt and emaciated, I don't think she's beautiful. She reminds me of a Chihuahua that's freezing and shaking.
responsibility firsts turns
I'd love to be the first one to say this, but it automatically turns into - we all have those responsibilities that we ignore because we don't feel like they're ours.
makeup smiley beckham
I'm a really smiley person, so I've just learned when I'm doing my own makeup, I have to make sure it's smile ready and not too heavy. As amazing as the Victoria Beckham pout is for photos, I just can't do it!
children struggle years
I have family members who literally struggle with crack addiction, and I've seen how destructive that's been, not only for their relationships and their children and their career, but perpetually even until today because that meant that that person was not there all these years to raise their child and just the damage that it inflicts.
smart thinking people
I love watching a movie that is smart, that makes me think, that includes me as an audience member, and I especially love it when I know that the people that I'm working with also do that.
responsibility scary denial
It's so much easier to get high than how scary it must be to see who you actually are and take responsibility for it. Denial is an easy place to live in.
addiction scary drug
You really can't just take someone who's got a drug addiction and just put 'em in rehab. It doesn't work that way. You can't choose it for them. They have to choose it for themselves - because that's scary. It's really hard.
people violence looks
When you look at the gladiator times or at any of the things in human history, people are and have always been attracted to violence to the point where they're in stadiums still to this day watching people getting stoned to death.
interesting life-and-death attention
Anything that has to deal with our mortality is always going to be interesting to us. Life and death is always going to be something that draws our attention.
