When it comes to life and love, why do we believe our worst reviews?
~ Sarah Jessica Parker
Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.
So many roads. So many detours. So many choices. So many mistakes.
I love, love, love being an actor - it's still the hardest and scariest thing I do, outside of parenting. But I've always been someone who likes a busy day.
I never wanted to be a celebrity; I never wanted to be famous. And in my daily life, I work really hard to not trade on it in any way.
My job requires me to put on a little dress and run around the streets of New York in heels. But I also had the financial means to hire a yoga teacher to come to my house while my sitter watched the newborn. For 95 percent of the world, that's not realistic.
I'm very, very concerned about the Bush presidency. I'm worried about the kinds of cuts in domestic programs that mean something to a lot of people, including members of my family, who depend on certain things from the government.
And if you are a parent, introduce your children to their neighborhood library. It will give them a real sense of independence to have their own library card and enjoy borrowing books.
When men attempt bold gestures, generally it's considered romantic. When women do it, it's often considered desperate or psycho.
Balls are to men what purses are to women.
I don't judge others. I say if you feel good with what you're doing, let your freak flag fly.
One of the things that's great about New York is that it is not a one-industry town. It has education, academia, the service industry, arts, publishing, theater, politics, fashion, finance, as well as movie-making.
I think growing up in a big family taught me a lot of problem solving and how to share and compromise, and that's been helpful in my marriage.
Can you really forgive if you can't forget?
I like my money right where I can see it... hanging in my closet.
Men who are too good looking are never good in bed because they never had to be.
I remember when I came home from the hospital after having my son, I wore a Narciso Rodriguez black coat. Then, I was using this fragrance that I had created. I walk by that coat, and it still smells like that fragrance. It takes you right there.
I just wasn't one of those girls who dreamt of her wedding day and the birth of her first child.
