Quotes
  • "I think women should talk about sex. I think women should talk to each other about sex; I think they should talk to men about sex."
  • "Motherhood is the only thing in my life that I've really known for sure is something I wanted to do."
  • "I find the baby thing very, very easy. It's a no-brainer."
  • "I'm fairly out of the loop when it comes to pop culture."
  • "Married people are the enemy, they either pity you or they envy you. Marriage is something that can take you off your path."
  • "Sex and The City has big fantasy elements, we're not trying to be role models. We look great so much of the time - we never have on the same outfit twice. But, frankly, most of my single friends complain endlessly that there are no men out there - so the idea that there's some fabulous guy round every corner is fantastical. It's a comedy! Who would take a social satire literally? Did anyone take Charlie's Angels literally?"
