I took solace in my relationship with God who, along with my dog, was my best friend growing up.

I have a desire to create more film, more beauty, more art, more love, but I don't feel desperate. It's not about creating or building a career.

I was obsessed with the Olympics. It's so exciting to see that level of excellence and endurance.

Success made me self-sufficient, but it also took away my anonymity. I'm just this quiet nobody, and all of a sudden people are nervous around me. That was kind of weird.

An instructor once told me that when there's resistence in your body, it's only because of the resistence in your mind. It's about getting inside the pose. Being the breath.

What saddens me is the corruption of youth and beauty, and the loss of soul, which is only replaced by money.

Both of my parents would say they were atheists, so where I inherited my connection to God I don't know. But it's natural. No Bible, no Torah, just the love religion.

Having a mate has given me that feeling of safety.

That industry expects you to prove yourself over and over again. Do I stay doing this, or do I raise my daughter and live surrounded by people who love me? Wasn't even really a choice.

The Cosby years were a major part of my life, but it is the past; I don't really concentrate on it.

My life is art. Its how I express God.

Having Zoe saved my life. It was my wake-up call. There were so many things I didn't want to pass on to her.
