I think it's important to have closure in any relationship that ends - from a romantic relationship to a friendship. You should always have a sense of clarity at the end and know why it began and why it ended. You need that in your life to move cleanly into your next phase.

Where would you be without friends? The people to pick you up when you need lifting? We come from homes far from perfect, so you end up almost parent and sibling to your friends - your own chosen family. There's nothing like a really loyal, dependable, good friend. Nothing.

I was told to avoid the business all together because of the rejection. People would say to me, 'Don't you want to have a normal job and a normal family?' I guess that would be good advice for some people, but I wanted to act.

You know when I feel inwardly beautiful? When I am with my girlfriends and we are having a 'goddess circle'.

I've never sat there and plotted out how I was going to become successful or famous.

One tradition I have with my friends is that when one of us gets married, we have a ton of fragrance oils and pretty bottles at the bachelorette party. Everyone puts a drop or two in a bottle for the bride and makes a wish, and the bride wears our creation on her wedding day.

OK, in all seriousness, I would say I couldn't be in a relationship without equality, generosity, integrity, spirit, kindness and humor. And awesomeness.

You can undo a lot of things. If you're not happy, you can become happy. Happiness is a choice. That's the thing I really feel.

I don't have a religion. I believe in a God. I don't know what it looks like but it's MY god. My own interpretation of the supernatural.

I love that feeling of being in love, the effect of having butterflies when you wake up in the morning. That is special.

My parents' divorce left me with a lot of sadness and pain and acting, and especially humour, was my way of dealing with all that.

It's sad, something coming to an end. It cracks you open, in a way - cracks you open to feeling. When you try to avoid the pain, it creates greater pain.

It's sad, something coming to an end. It cracks you open, in a way - cracks you open to feeling.

The fun stuff comes when someone is not so strict on sticking to the script. You're allowed the spontaneity, and great moments can happen.

I want to see friends more and travel more.

Marriage brings up all the things I pushed to the back burner - the fears, the mistrust, the doubts, the insecurities. It's like opening Pandora's box.

Marriage is wonderful.

I have a lot of amazing women, you know, women in my life who have been an example for me of what not to do.

A relationship isn't going to make me survive. It's the cherry on top.

I think a good relationship is about collaboration.

Cancer affects all of us, whether you're a daughter, mother, sister, friend, coworker, doctor, patient.

Life can be dramatic and funny all in the same day.

I had an idea of what I thought was funny. It's kind of based on how I am.

Look I eat really well and I work out, but I also indulge when I want to. I don't starve myself in an extremist way. You're not taking away my coffee or my dairy or my glass of wine because I'd be devastated.

There are no regrets in life, just lessons.

My dad became a soap opera actor, and I was an extra in a skating rink scene on the soap. I didn't audition. It was nepotism all the way.

You know, I've got wrinkles on my forehead and smile lines, but what's wrong with that? I love to smile.
