"I wasn't the high-school play queen or anything. And my parents would let not me act until I graduat..." — Gwyneth Paltrow

Because I was newly pregnant, I was sick as a dog, yet I knew all my lines from a year before.

I don't know who decided that skinny was more appealing than not skinny. It seems arbitrary.

I moved to New York from California when I was 11, so initially I was seen as the California person for a while. I didn't feel like I was popular, but I did feel confident.

I really like where Tony Robbins says that we're all hypnotized to see beauty this one specific way, and it's true.
