I didn't want to escape my life and become a big actress and live my dreams. That was never the way it was it was just these amazing opportunities that happened.

People go down bad paths and they make bad decisions, but it's always justified in their head.

I once had someone say to me in an interview, 'You are more ugly on the screen than in real life.'

It's not like I've ever been the popular pretty girl at school or anything. I was always such a weirdo.

People really want to see what I'm up to, and that's crazy. It's a really lovely feeling. It's kind of scary, but a good scary. It's a lovely position to be in.

Whether I like it or not, I've become influential to people.

Absolutely, I think that is where a scent is so powerful because it harnesses our memory and our memory is a very emotional place. I do like the smell of excitement.

Natalie Portman never looks back, ever. Ever!

My own parents were very un-neurotic, so I never thought that I had to change enormously in order to become a parent.

The love of God is not created- it is His nature.

Dad was supportive, intelligent, read to me as a kid, left me a trillion dollars. It's hard to complain.

I love London. I would move here. I like British people; everybody is so down to earth.
