Horses calm me. I love being around them. They smell great, they are beautiful to look at, they are loving, demanding, temperamental, and they settle you.

I love living with animals. And my children love animals. I love walking around and being with the horses. But the deer? They're naughty.

I find that the very things that I get criticized for, which is usually being different and just doing my own thing and just being original, is the very thing that's making me successful.

I temporarily lost my hope in love, and it was temporary, thank goodness.

I love being around my family.

I love being around great actors and film-makers, and I try to hide the fact that I'm in awe of them.
