The new Ann Taylor is for modern women who want to take on the world in style.
I don't like to take my clothes off.
You don't come into this life wanting to be anything other than happy.
I want to play many different characters.
Look, when people came after me for doing 'Indecent Proposal' or 'Disclosure,' I thought, 'Ridiculous.' These people are trying to limit me as an actor. Are they saying I can't play these roles? Well, I've proved I can.
Marriage was a goal. A family, for me as a young girl, was my image of what I hoped for. It was part of the big picture.

I'm intensely private, and I've openly shown annoyance at the paparazzi.

It takes a lot to motivate me to exercise but Physique 57 is the ideal workout, it's efficient, fun and targeted to get the results you didn't think were possible!
Life isn't always easy, but it's simple.
While you're pregnant you're made to feel not beautiful or sexually viable. You're either sexy, or you're a mother. I didn't want to have to choose, so I challenged that.
With Twitter people oddly feel accountable for what they write. When someone is unkind, the community rallies like you wouldn't believe to shut it down.
In a way, I feel that film roles haven't given me the opportunity to show I have a sense of humor.
I don't read reviews, and I don't include the press as part of my priorities or as part of the world that has any validity to what's really important to me.
I truly believe you can't buy your way into genuine love. You can surely buy companionship, but I don't think [love] has a price tag on it.
In the end the only thing that you can have on your side is time. The only way to gain time is by living it. And if I live expending my energy worrying about other people's perceptions, then I'm missing my moment.
People - whatever their race, religion, sexual preference - deserve to be treated as human beings.
I'm too grateful that I continue to grow as an actor. I hope I get better. I feel like I am. But it's a roll of the dice every time you make a movie. Nobody knows.
While I don't think that Twitter is really an appropriate place for someone who seriously needs help, it shows the impact that we can have when we collectively come together to support someone.
I've never been one of those people who has an extremely high level of crisis. I just don't need all that emotional drama.
There's nothing wrong with having a desire to want nice things.
Like many people, I think I'm my own worst critic. And I think I take a lot out in an internally abusive way, looking at how I measure up, which usually was never enough. I never, never was as good as someone else.
I'm intensely private, and I've openly shown annoyance at the paparazzi. That's served in the past to create an image of me where I'm always frowning or looking angry.
Marriage is one of the most difficult things in the world and unfortunately sometimes they fail.
Work has enhanced and certainly supported my feelings toward myself, because it's been a reflection of goals I've set. But if you're not happy with yourself on the inside, then what does it matter?
I just don't like the idea of having an operation to hold up the ageing process.
Success has to be an inside job. Happiness does not come from external material things. Even people don't make us ultimately happy. It's how we choose to deal with those things that happen in our lives that matters.

I don't know if I personally instill a fear in people, but I think that there are things that I have been involved in that perhaps stir up their own personal fears.
Certainly I'm passionate and driven and quite relentless when I want something.
Talk about meeting your soul mate ... I truly feel I have been given that gift. And believe me, I wasn't some lightweight package. I'm, like, the package that didn't just come with luggage - I had trunks.
There's this idea that if you take your clothes off, somehow you must have loose morals.
I think that laughter and smiling are some of the best antidotes to ageing that you could possibly have. In general, I pretty much think of myself as still being about 5.
The things two people do to each other they remember. If they stay together, it's not because they forget; it's because they forgive.
I'm a big believer in that if you focus on good skin care, you really won't need a lot of makeup.
I like to connect to people in the virtual world, exchanging thoughts and ideas, when in the physical world we might never have the opportunity to cross paths.
Don't let your wounds make you become someone you're not.

Time is an amazing equalizer. I think if you stay true to yourself and keep moving forward, things come around.

I think of myself as still being about five.
I feel like I have the fortune of privilege, particularly as it relates to my children.
There's nothing wrong with having a desire to want nice things. It's when we place that as a measure of the value of ourselves that it goes askew.
When one person is enslaved, we're all enslaved.
Models, even male models - how small they've gotten! It looks great for the clothes, but it's not what you want in real life.

For the moment I prefer to be a beautiful woman of my age than try desperately to look 30.
The thing is most people are afraid to step out, to take a chance beyond their established identity.
Some of my lowest points were the most exciting opportunities to push through to be a better person.
I have had a love-hate relationship with my body.
Not caring more about what other people think than what you think. That's freedom.
Ashton jumped in and said, 'I want you to know that I don't take coming into childrens lives lightly'. That was within the first couple of weeks of our relationship, before he had met the girls. they are my priority and I've always be sensitive to their feelings, but as the parent you can't allow your children to dictate what's right for you.
Despite what anti-aging ads say, growing older can be better. I feel better in my skin, 100 percent. You have greater effects of gravity, but the better sense of yourself you have is something I wouldn't trade. Women who lie about their age - 'why?'
I used to think that what scared me was the idea of being abandoned until someone said to me, 'Only children can be abandoned. Adults can't be abandoned because we have a choice. Children don't have a choice.'
I would say what scares me is that I'm going to ultimately find out at the end of my life that I'm really not lovable, that I'm not worthy of being loved. That there's something fundamentally wrong with me.
It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I have decided to end my six-year marriage to Ashton. As a woman, a mother and a wife there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life.
It really isn't anybody's business how many people we have working for us. What's offensive is that I'm portrayed as this prima donna with these sycophants telling me how great I am all the time. Yes, they do work for me, but we're working together for a higher good.
When I'm at the greatest odds with my body, it's usually because I feel my body's betraying me, whether that's been in the past, struggling with my weight and feeling that I couldn't eat what I wanted to eat, or that I couldn't get my body to do what I wanted it to do.
I feel sexy because I feel loved. That's what sexy is-it's feeling good from the inside. When you feel sexy or sensuous, you naturally want to open up and give, and I think that comes from being able to receive love and desire.
In my personal life I wasn't someone who cried easily, someone who was extremely vulnerable, you know, in that way that's constantly seeking out affirmation from other people. I've always been much more the person who took care of everyone else.
I try to focus on the present, what I'm doing now. I feel like the best design I can have is an awareness of where I've come from so that I don't repeat myself. Luckily, my work provides me with a tremendous source of new opportunities.
