If I do three interviews in a day, I can be exhausted, because the process of hearing everyone requires that I empty out myself. While I'm listening, my own judgments and prejudices certainly come up. But I know I won't get anything unless I get thos...
My own husband was divorced when we met, but without kids. I don't know what I would have done if he'd had them. I got the message very early on that the worst mistake a woman can make is marrying a man with children.
Even the Australians don't know how beautiful their own country is. Particularly where we were shooting 'The Straits.' Most of my stuff was done on an aboriginal settlement on the south shore, opposite Cairns, which I believe was the site where the l...
The problem with modern politics is everybody is doing sound bite stuff. In my stump speech, I give 20 minutes on why I think we're off track. And I think people do really want to engage in a serious high-level discussion on how to get the country ba...
I work out at Will Space four times a week. It's a private training gym. It's owned by my trainer, Will Torres. I just came from there, actually. I turned Mark Consuelos onto Will, so he goes there too. Today we boxed. It's every kind of cross-traini...

The impatient man is his own enemy; he slams the door on his own progress.
The best way to encourage your children is to let them know you are praying for them.
A person with autism lives in his own world, while a person with Asperger's lives in our world, in a way of his own choosing
That was how the heroine of a book would play it and Diana was still writing her own story the best heroines she'd always believed took their fate into their own hands.
The things you own end up owning you. It's only after you lose everything that you're free to do anything.
She'd created her own hell, and now that she had learned to control her fear, she knew how to create her own paradise.
It's Survival of Them Who's Best at Nicking Things, girl!
Hats have power. Hats can change you into someone else.
When you listen to your spouse, you are communicating non verbally that they are important to you.
