You have to have the passion. I could not live if I wasn't an actor. If you're just in it for beautiful dresses and movie stars, then I think you should not be an actor.

I like the idea of accessibility, coming from a lower-middle-class background myself, I feel like beauty and products should be accessible to all women over the world.

Family is becoming more and more important to me.

I play a curator, the most American part you can think of. My work is to protect the Declaration of Independence. I work at the National Archives in Washington.

Looking back at it now, I really feel like it was a gift because I don’t know if I have the talent to become a prima ballerina. It’s such a hard job to have. I don’t have any regrets about it.

I am a better person when I let myself have the time for romance and for love.

What you wear is such an expression of who you are. That's like someone picking out who I'm going to date!

I do give myself a break in my personal life but I think in work, if you don't push yourself you get bored and want to do something else.

With modeling, you pose. You want to look your best all the time. With acting, you have to be aware of the camera, but the more you show your imperfections, the better you're going to be.

People always think I’m dainty when they meet me, but I’m really not. I’m very German – we’re not made out of sugar.

I don't believe in marriage. I believe in a commitment that you make in your heart. There's no paper that will make you stay.

Hate is a parasite that will eat all compassion.

Marriage is about the most expensive way for the average man to get laundry done.

One of my few virtues - I don't have a lot of them - would be a deep sense of curiosity. I'm interested in how other people live in other places; I'm interested in other cultures.

I want to produce with people that are going to be on the charts and win Grammys because having regular old street songs is cool, but I did all that already.

By my rambling digressions I perceive myself to be growing old.

Once the war against Saddam begins, we expect every American to support our military, and if they can't do that, to shut up.

The measurement in this race is not where you come from, it is "what do you fight for."

Just as in nature systems of order govern the growth and structure of animate and inanimate matter, so human activity itself has, since the earliest times, been distinguished by the quest for order.

We cannot know God apart from His Word.

I think if we ban certain religions, if we censor the Internet, I think that at that point the terrorists will have won.
