Sexiness comes with maturity.
Andie MacDowell
Women who make the choice to have grey hair - I think that's beautiful.
Do I really need to prove anything to anybody? I don't feel that I have to prove anything. The only thing that I have to prove is to myself, that I have value.
Kindness can come from someone on Twitter, it can come from someone on the street, it can come from someone at work. Without kindness, I don't know what I would do. The greatest part of life is the simple things.
I always say that kindness is the greatest beauty that you can have.
I wish there was a news channel that really told you what was going on in the world, not just sensationalized news.
With all that's going on in our lives and the world, reducing stress is important, and it's a factor in heart health.
I'm not a huge TV person. I don't like having the noise when I'm doing other things unless I'm really lonely, and then I turn the TV on. But I do like to sit down and watch TV in the evenings.
My girls have been a great support to me. I come to them when I need to make a decision; they love to watch me work.
People that are 40, they don't sit around at talk about gray hair and how it covers their hair. They talk about highlighting, of course they're covering gray, but they don't talk about it that way. They're going to get their colors because they need a little lightening.
I love being an advocate for women as we get older so that we can feel comfortable with ourselves.
The thing is, we live in a contemporary world, and being able to make yourself the best person you can possible be can be difficult. But as long as you're trying to figure it out, and you're really looking in the right direction, everything's going to be all right.
Looking back, I realise I had to grow up and be responsible at a very tender age.
I think hidden underneath a lot of teachers are very sexy women.
Wonderful things happen when you turn 50: you change perspective. You ask, 'Who am I? What do I want to do with my life? What have I not done that I want to do?'
Being prepared helps you feel more confident at the doctor's office. Think about what you want to ask and write those questions down.
Some women are naturally thin. But there needs to be an appreciation for a variety of types of women because we don't all come in one package. We're not pre-destined to all be a size six. It's very hard for a large group of women to maintain a thinness which is, after all, only natural to a few people.
I wouldn't wear really short dresses anymore - just don't feel comfortable in them.
My mother and I used to watch 'Maude,' and I think she loved 'Maude' because my mother wanted to see strong women out there with a voice.
I'm comfortable in front of a camera, and I'm used to being watched, although that kind of bugged me at first. On the stage, though, I'm scared. I really get frightened in front of people.
You know what may be the oddest thing about being a star? Stars have an effect on people. It's a responsibility, and it's frightening.
My goal is to do cartwheels for the rest of my life.
There are loads of actresses that modelled. They just weren't famous. There weren't a lot that were really known as models that became actresses, but there are hordes of them that did modelling before such as Anjelica Huston, Jessica Lange, Sharon Stone, Demi Moore and Geena Davis. There are loads of 'em.
The problem with my mother is that she didn't go to the doctor. And I think by the time she started to show symptoms that something might not be right, and finally went to the doctor, she was so close to her death that she couldn't get the care she had needed. Her big issue was not going to the doctor.
As a proud spokesperson for L'Oreal Paris, I have communicated the 'Because You're Worth It' message many times, and know firsthand how empowering it is to say and how empowering it feels.
In the days when I used to tweet, I would encounter comments wishing death upon me. There were people who claimed they were sticking pins in my effigy because they couldn't stand me. There's some seriously disturbed people out there.
I'm an artist, but, as I get older, I really want to do philanthropic work and help people.
My biggest regret is rolling in regret. It is best to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and move on.
It's interesting now; with social media, you are actually interacting with fans.
I'm just human, and I have great relationships with the people that work for me.
Some women are naturally thin. But there needs to be an appreciation for a variety of types of women because we don't all come in one package. We're not pre-destined to all be a size six.
I never dye my own hair, I don't know if I could get every spot, and I have a good bit of grey.
My mother and grandmother both had beautiful skin.
When you are authentic, you create a certain energy... people want to be around you because you are unique.
It's difficult sometimes to become friends with actors.
Having the option to be able to have a career and feel good about yourself as an individual and still be a great mother is definitely a possibility.
I think every time in your life is valuable, and you need to exist in that moment. Because if you don't - you lose it.
I willingly devoted myself to my children and to my husband. I come from a broken home, and I decided a long time ago that I would put my family ahead of everything.
I've worked with producers who have told me to lose weight, and I'm not overweight, but they want you to look strange, anorexic, horrible. It's odd. It's like they are exerting a power over women, that they want them to look really frail.
Someday, I'll make a movie with a British accent.
I think a lot of times people who jump from one movie to another don't enjoy their private life. It's a great way to escape reality. But I enjoy my life.
I don't go to enough movies.
There is a comfortable feeling in small towns. It is salubrious.
I think sometimes I intimidate people. I've been told that. But I feel I'm the least intimidating person possible.
I like being a part of something. I like participating and being part of a group.
I think women have an innate ability to be intuitive with people that they truly love, but they have to trust that inner voice, and I think it is there. I think we are more intuitive than men.
It kind of cracks me up when people say I'm hot because I just think that that's a term that I don't have to deal with anymore.
I tried to do things independently with each child.
I'm really addicted to water. I carry a bottle of water everywhere I go. I know people think I'm a nut.
I'm strong. I'm outspoken. I feel like I'm equal to men. I can walk in the woods just as much and as far as a man can. Yet I'm still female. I'm very female.
