Happy Birhday Nicole Kidman!

You don't have to be naked to be sexy.

Ich habe keine Angst vor Schlangen oder Spinnen - nur vor Schmetterlingen.

It's so bizarre, I'm not scared of snakes or spiders. But I'm scared of butterflies. There is something eerie about them. Something weird!

Was spricht dagegen, etwas Gutes zu tun, wenn keiner zuschaut?

I find standing and posing for photos very awkward.

Verzichtet man darauf, seine Zukunft bestimmen zu wollen, lebt man viel zufriedener.

I'm not sure what the future holds but I do know that I'm going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate. As my dad said 'Nic, it is what it is, it's not what it should have been, not what it could have been, it is what it is.'

That goes against what I believe morally. That's adultery, and if I'm accused of that, no, that's not right. I have two kids who see that and remember that and judge me. It didn't happen, and it's not to be reported that way.

It's very easy to fall in love when things are great, but the way to really fall in love is when things aren't great.

LIfe has got all those twists and turns. You've got to hold on tight and off you go.

I'm a woman, a mother, a daughter, a sister. I'm a real person operating in the world. For me to discuss the most private thing feels wrong. It feels like I'm betraying myself and my children.

I was walking around legally blind. Now I have 20-20 vision. I can't believe I spent so many years blurry, but I think that coincides with how I was feeling. Now I notice if people are watching me, but I also smile right back if someone waves, which helps.

I don't really make decisions, I go with the flow.

I'm drawn to the psychology of really interesting, flawed people.

I would describe myself as emotional and highly strung. If something upsets me, it really upsets me. If something makes me angry, I get really angry. But it's all very upfront. I can't hide it. I'm also loyal and I hope I'm fun.

I'm a person that carries everything that happened to me in my past, with me into the future. I refuse to let it make me bitter. I still completely believe in love and I remain open to anything that will happen to me.

You've just got to have a sense of respect for the person you have children with. Anger doesn't help anybody. Ultimately you have to say forgiveness is important, and honoring what you had together is important. But it's easy to say and harder to do.

It's a very brave thing to fall in love. You have to be willing to trust somebody else with your whole being, and that's very difficult, really difficult and very brave.

I think when you're in a relationship where you really care for the other person, when they achieve their dreams it's better than when you do yourself.

I think that the most difficult thing is allowing yourself to be loved, so receiving the love and feeling like you deserve it is a pretty big struggle. I suppose that's what I've learnt recently, to allow myself to be loved.

I have a boy's body. I would prefer to have more curves because I think that's more beautiful. I would much rather have J. Lo's body than mine.

I like the privacy of my life and I protect it quite vigilantly.

When you relinquish the desire to control your future, you can have more happiness.

I love working with people who are inspired and obsessive.

Every day there is a compromise. Living with somebody requires a lot of understanding. But I love being married. I really love it.

I would rather be tough on myself than have other people be tough on me.

I refuse to let what happened to me make me bitter.

Yippee! I can't believe I made it. It feels like a long haul to get here. I'm so fine with it. People want you to have some sort of breakdown, but I'm relieved to be 40 years old, and I've lived a life.
