I've never in my life said I didn't want to have children. I did and I do and I will!

Let us be the ones who say we do not accept that a child dies every three seconds simply because he does not have the drugs you and I have. Let us be the ones to say we are not satisfied that your place of birth determines your right for life. Let us be outraged, let us be loud, let us be bold.

I believe you make your day. You make your life. So much of it is all perception, and this is the form that I built for myself. I have to accept it and work within those compounds, and it's up to me.

I'd say that 'Tree of Life' is not a Christian so much as a spiritual film.

Happiness is overrated. There has to be conflict in life.

I was so intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn't living an interesting life myself.
