I've experienced the tabloids when I had anorexia.

I'm not acting, but I am acting.

I will never have a drink and get behind the wheel of a car. It's not illegal to drink and drive, but there becomes a certain point where it does become a crime.

You can never prepare yourself enough to see your mug shot and DUI.

I am the person who is a mother against drunk driver.

I've got a pretty good appetite right now.

I'm not a religious person. I'm Catholic, so I consider myself more of a spiritual person. I believe in God.

I'm the most cynical person, and I know what that sounds like when you say, I don't drink and drive, and I don't. But I know people look at that with skepticism, and I understand.

I'll always have a baby face.

I had years of therapy to recover from this. A lot of it had to with being a people pleaser, being the ultimate good girl. I wanted everyone to like me. I didn't really have a voice. I was afraid of growing up.

You don't have the judgment after you've had the drink. If something truly catastrophic had happened that evening, I don't know how I could have lived with myself. I feel like I've gotten a second chance.

You can stay in therapy your whole life, but you've got to live life and not talk about life.

Our family has gone through a very difficult time. My husband and I have taken the brunt of it. I've never known what it truly felt like to be so sad and desperate inside.

Life comes full circle.

I've experienced the tabloids when I had anorexia.

I remember that all of a sudden, the car felt like I couldn't control it. It was absolutely the most horrifying experience. We rolled over, off the freeway. I think there was something wrong with the car.

When I was 19 years old, I came down with anorexia. I had it for about a year before it became public. And it had a lot to do with my self-esteem.

My body started to shut down. I got really, really ill. When you're starving yourself, you can't concentrate. I was like a walking zombie, like the walking dead. I was just consumed with what I would eat, what I wouldn't eat.

I unwittingly became sort of this anorexia spokeswoman.

I had a very public battle with anorexia.

I don't believe things happen in vain. I believe they happen for a reason.

I have faith in the justice system, and what will happen will happen. I'm just trying to do the right thing.

I didn't think I was fat. I just thought I didn't need to gain any weight. But I would drop weight and then I would be comfortable with that number. Then I would lose more weight and that would become my new number.

Sometimes I forget about taking care of myself.

Anorexia, you starve yourself. Bulimia, you binge and purge. You eat huge amounts of food until you're sick and then you throw up. And anorexia, you just deny yourself. It's about control.

You can't enjoy life if you're not nourishing your body.

I've been so in my moment about my life.

I just don't like to drive. I'm not a bad driver, I just don't like to drive.

I love acting. But I love being a mother. To be a full mother and a full person, you have to do what you love, and that's acting. But I like the best of both worlds.

All I need to do to stay healthy is look at my three boys.

I knew that by getting behind the wheel of the car and having had something to drink, the responsibility laid on my shoulders.

Any actor will tell you, anybody in the public eye, that the tabloids are the worst kind of ramification of being a celebrity.

After the crash happened, I was so humiliated and embarrassed. I thought of Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, that they must hate me.

Ordinarily, I'd claim that I'd never write directly about my children, but the opening conversation of 'Peter Elroy' is a verbatim conversation that my children had that I just loved: morbid, funny, passionate, and obsessed with the truth of things - all natural qualities of children that I'd like my work to contain.

Work on yourself more than you do on your job.

Honestly, I had no idea what to do on Twitter when I started. I didn't follow it enough. Slowly, though, I started to realize what I'm okay at. Like, I'm just not particularly witty.

Bobby Troup and I have been working together for about a year in clubs. We work in the same club.

How I draw and how I leave things out is parallel in some ways to the non-verbal soundscape in radio stories.

Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death.

I wasted a lot of years working on my writing and very grandly saying, 'And now... My Novel!,' which would soon be reduced to a short story, then to a paragraph.

True love is not a strong, fiery, impetuous passion. It is, on the contrary, an element calm and deep. It looks beyond mere externals, and is attracted by qualities alone. It is wise and discriminating, and its devotion is real and abiding.

I don't mind being called snobbish, a pain and a social climber, but being called unkind really hurts.

Realistically, we could aim for the top three in the constructors championship. Realistically, we could look at winning more races. Three race wins would be very satisfying.

We're not really under pressure to deliver a cloned baby to this world. What we are under pressure to do is to deliver a cloned baby that is a healthy one.

France is delighted at this new opportunity to show the world that when one has the will one can succeed in joining peoples who have been brought close by history.

To this day, I haven't felt like I've made it. I'm waiting for them to pull the rug out from under me. I kind of feel like George Plimpton; I'm just experiencing this whole business with the really talented people.

The dread of loneliness is greater than the fear of bondage so we get married.

I think America has dealt with - I mean, this is simplistic, and of course I don't live in America - but the impression I get is that there is not a kind of obligation to dislike those who are better off or be frightened of those who are worse off.

Actually, I think that a lot of the interviews and acoustic sessions and other things that artists fill their time with are really pointless and suck the energy out of the artist.
