There are some things that, if you say them out loud, will hurt the other person's feelings. I tend to say them anyway. It's better to be honest.

I definitely want to go out and explore different personalities and different people.

My mother is a realist, and she's had biological and adoptive children, and she said it's no different: No matter what, they're putting a stranger into your arms. You don't know them yet.

The more you want it [romantic relationship], the more you are looking for it, the more you repel it for whatever reason. I don't know why. If you kind of create this vacuum, let life take its course, then you tend to free yourself up for the unexpected.

I haven't been to rehab, I don't do anything eccentric - I'm really boring.

---

When I see some of the people who are glorified in magazines these days - who are so thin it's bordering on sickness - I just feel exhausted.

---

My worst habit used to be smoking but I quit.

---

Adoption has been a part of my life and a part of my family, so it was how I wanted to start. It felt natural and right to me.

---

Marriage is actually really terrifying. It doesn't work for many people.

---

I was putting so much time and energy into just my work, but I was raised [to believe] that family comes first.
