Deep down, I'm a Texas girl looking for that big romance every girl dreams about. Biologically, I look forward to being a cornerstone of a family. I'll be in my glory when I have a child on my knee.

I'm glad folks think I look different, I'm living a different, happy, more fulfilling life, and I'm thrilled that perhaps it shows.

Goodness in other people and what they contribute inspire me. I love it when someone is gifted and shares it in some way so that it has a trickle-down effect.

I like to have nice conversations with a man that teach me something, make me mad, make me curious. Then I find him attractive.

I believe in love, but I don't sit around waiting for it. I buy houses.

I'm not single, I'm busy. That's my line.

Shut up. Just shut up. You had me at 'hello'.

I think it's our obligation to play, Honor. It's just a game, so can I kiss you?”"Yes.""Plan on one minute in heaven, Honor." A split second later his lips were on hers.

the much-sought prize of eternal youthIs just arrested growth.

I have a lot of respect for people who are great at ad-libbing, and for writers and directors who are able to create a scene in which that works.

The law is a powerful thing but the law doesn't always change what's in people's hearts. And so all of us have an obligation to think about how we're treating other people.

You invite things to happen. You open the door. You inhale. And if you inhale the chaos, you give the chaos, the chaos gives back.

I am in the infantry for 17 weeks and after that I don't know where I am going.

I'm really excited about our DJ set. That's probably the most exciting of all. It's selfish but it's always your own thing that you're most concerned with.

This country has not been made by politicians, kings or governments. It has been made by farmers, labourers, our mothers and sisters and youth.

It is the age that forms the man, not the man that forms the age.
