Men who are too good looking are never good in bed because they never had to be.

Every once in awhile, a girl has to indulge herself.

When it comes to life and love, why do we believe our worst reviews?

I don't believe in email. I'm an old-fashioned girl. I prefer calling and hanging up.

I'm very, very concerned about the Bush presidency. I'm worried about the kinds of cuts in domestic programs that mean something to a lot of people, including members of my family, who depend on certain things from the government.

You can't be friends with a squirrel! A squirrel is just a rat with a cuter outfit.

I don't judge others. I say if you feel good with what you're doing, let your freak flag fly.

So many roads. So many detours. So many choices. So many mistakes.

Are we simply romantically challenged, or are we sluts?

Balls are to men what purses are to women.

It's like the riddle of the Sphinx... why are there so many great unmarried women, and no great unmarried men?

When men attempt bold gestures, generally it's considered romantic. When women do it, it's often considered desperate or psycho.

A squirrel is just a rat with a cuter outfit!

Can you make a mistake and miss your fate?

When real people fall down in life, they get right back up and keep walking.

Can you really forgive if you can't forget?

Do we need distance to get close?

Men who are too good looking are never good in bed because they never had to be.

In a relationship, when does the art of compromise become compromising?

To be in a couple, do you have to put your single self on a shelf?

If two people have only one thought between them, something is very wrong.

Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.

I write about sex, not love. What do I know about love?

I like my money right where I can see it... hanging in my closet.

And if you are a parent, introduce your children to their neighborhood library. It will give them a real sense of independence to have their own library card and enjoy borrowing books.

As a woman, I have an inherent need to be all things to all people, to make certain everybody's taken care of. I know I can't sustain that level all the time, so I'm finding the proper balance and it's made me infinitely happier.

Follow your instincts and do not let other people's opinion of you become your opinion of yourself.

Friends are readily disappointed by the size of my closet. And I thought it was big!

I developed a really strong work ethic, and I don't take anything for granted.

I don't know how an actress is supposed to observe and create new stuff if she hasn't been on the streets, brushing up against humanity. You have to have a life.

I expect I should be more calloused by now, but I am so sensitive about not ever living up to anybody's worst idea about an actor who is well-known.

I have a fantastic husband. Here's the honeymoon part: I still think he's the funniest, wittiest, most clever man I've ever known.

I have a lot of responsibilities outside myself. I have a large family. I want to know I can always be helpful.

I love Matthew Broderick. Call me crazy, but I love him. We can only be in the marriage we are. We're very devoted to our family and our lives. I love our life. I love that he's the father of my children, and it's because of him that there's this whole other world that I love.

I love the opportunity to wear something really special and go to a wonderful event at some great cultural institution.

I never wanted to be a celebrity; I never wanted to be famous. And in my daily life, I work really hard to not trade on it in any way.

I remember when I came home from the hospital after having my son, I wore a Narciso Rodriguez black coat. Then, I was using this fragrance that I had created. I walk by that coat, and it still smells like that fragrance. It takes you right there.

I still like getting dressed up and having the opportunity to borrow beautiful dresses, but as a mother - and as somebody who's schedule isn't always my own - I don't shop a lot, or think about clothes a lot.

I tell my friends married life is boring, but that's just a fun thing to say to make single people feel better.

I wouldn't know how to be on Facebook if my life depended on it.

I'm a bitter-ender. It's potentially my fatal flaw that I do not give up on something. I will not rest. I work and work and work until I can no longer and someone has to remove me from the premises.

I'm aware of people's association with me and fashion and I certainly take that role on for some occasions, but it doesn't dominate my thoughts all the time.

I'm less Pollyanna now. That's probably healthy.

If I didn't have kids, I would be at the theater or the ballet every single night of my life.

It's not like it's hard to be decent and respectful and well-behaved. I do wait in line, and I do take the subway, and I do do my own grocery shopping, and I do take the kids to school.

Most of my friends in New York are single women or gay men.

My job requires me to put on a little dress and run around the streets of New York in heels. But I also had the financial means to hire a yoga teacher to come to my house while my sitter watched the newborn. For 95 percent of the world, that's not realistic.

One of the things that's great about New York is that it is not a one-industry town. It has education, academia, the service industry, arts, publishing, theater, politics, fashion, finance, as well as movie-making.

Read the editorial page of your local paper. It introduces you to opinion and can be terrifically provocative and perhaps a great motivating force for you to get involved in your community, regardless of your political ideology.
