Every time I sign a contract, I donate something to charity and buy a piece of jewelry. Whether the movie gets made or not, it's a celebration.

Every time I do a movie where it gets physical, I say never again.

I did go through a bit of a dark time during the years I was trying to be a mom. But I'm basically a very positive person.

I don't know the figures, but Hollywood must buy 100 rights for every movie that actually gets made.

I have found that every family has a strange remedy for any situation - from 'Use Fantastic to get the scuff off your patent leather shoes!' to 'Soak an aspirin in a glass of water to get rid of a migraine.'

On my daughter's first day of kindergarten, another mom said something that made me realize I had become my own Greek, suffocating mother. She said, 'Just think, in 13 years they'll leave us and go to college!' And I went, 'Gulp.'
