I love Jennifer Hudson! She is so lovely on screen. She is so buoyant and youthful off screen as much as on.
-
I cringe inside when anybody gives me something. I don't know why. I just get embarrassed.
-
Trying to be a man is a waste of a woman?
-
If you're a nice person and you work hard, you get to go shopping at Barneys. It's the decadent reward.
-
I think growing up in a big family taught me a lot of problem solving and how to share and compromise, and that's been helpful in my marriage.
-
I think women should have what they determine to be a staple in their closet, because who's to say that my staple is someone else's staple? I'm this tall, and I live in this city, and I have to walk the kids to school, and I don't tend to drive as much - my life requirements are radically different than yours or hers or his. Staples are: What do you need? And then, what do you want? "Need" comes first, typically; "want" gets taken care of occasionally.
-
People should dress the way they want. Any rules for age or shape are silly. If you walk out the door feeling good about yourself, that’s what counts.
-
Can you make a mistake and miss your fate?
-
I tell my friends married life is boring, but that's just a fun thing to say to make single people feel better.
-
I think it's incumbent upon me to try to be smart and make good choices and work with good people and work my ass off when I'm working with good people and I have to let everyone have their opinion afterwards. But this is what happens. You make a movie or you're on a show and then you have this experience and everyone tells you what you did. They tell you what you did. That's allowed. That's the experience of being human and subjectivity. That's it. We can only do what we'll do, and I can only do the best I can do.
-
I don't look to play people that are familiar. I look to play people that are different, challenge, unknown, foreign, and therefore scary.
-
Someone once told me that children are like heroin. You always want more. Yet first-borns are special because you'll never have your first child again.
-
The arts were a big part of my childhood. We went to the theatre and opera a lot as a family. We were not at all wealthy, but it was at a time when the arts were publicly funded and there were free tickets available. For someone like myself who wasn't that academically inclined, it was a great escape.
-
I believe in God, but in my own unconventional way. We're not affiliated with any organisation, and I have no religious education of any kind, but I definitely have my own kind of ideas about it.
-
I don't judge others. I say if you feel good with what you're doing, let your freak flag fly.
-
Most of my friends in New York are single women or gay men.
-
If I didn't have kids, I would be at the theater or the ballet every single night of my life.
-
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 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 know that he, Matthew Broderick, doesn't have his laundry done, and that he hasn't had a hot meal in days. That stuff weighs on my mind.
-
The women's choice of footwear doesn't speak for their most important inner life, but rather it tells a story - this is an opportunity to express themselves. I think the thing that's most compelling about other people is when you don't look like you're trying to dress like your friend, colleague, neighbor, or anything else. That's a very arresting and exciting and compelling quality to possess - not everybody has the courage to walk out the door feeling like themselves, but once they do, it's thrilling to witness.
-
Men who are too good looking are never good in bed because they never had to be.
-
I write about sex, not love. What do I know about love?
-
I'm a person who's been in a long-term relationship. It's not surprising that a lot of my friends - whether they're in same-sex relationships or not, whether they're married officially or just in a long-term relationship - have really interesting and various stages in their relationship. My life is looking at these friendships and saying, "Wait a minute, isn't this something really interesting? How can I explore this?"
