I'll do anything for free stuff.

I've never been a blind romantic.

Lemons clean everything. It's the greatest disinfectant.

Crushes are wonderful-they make you feel like you're two years old, and you say the stupidest things.

It's nice we work in a place where you're allowed to keep coming back to have new experiences together.

Ironing is comfort. It's control. I'm a nutty person who likes to make sure everything is in its place.

I know when I'm getting ready to mess up, I'm going to do it full-on.

You grow up and share life experiences. That's one of the best parts of this business. You share how you're mellowing out and your new sense of self.

I've done all my tricks. I'm tired of myself.

I got away from comedy because it wasn't being done in the way that I loved and the way that I could do it. It made me sad because I felt like it wasn't appreciated and no one was writing it so, 'I'll abandon it.

I love good romantic comedies. There just aren't a lot of them. But, I love comedies, and I'll never stop doing them.

Ryan Reynolds and I can be doing a scene facing the camera and somehow our back and forth and our rhythm, we know when to stop and when to volley, when to make the sound. It's like music.

I keep saying, 'Don't change. Be who you are,' but society is really strong in their opinions.

I was a little worried that the familiarity would be a little weird, but I think for me everything is musical in my life. For me, timing is a rhythm.

All the knowledge that I have doesn't necessarily make me brilliant, but I love acquiring knowledge and then sharing it with everybody else.

I mean, yeah, Anne Fletcher was a choreographer, but she was born to be a director. You need to have the ability to figure out people's rhythms. It all starts from the script.

I'm difficult on every single level. I'm aware that I can be annoying.

I go to bed wearing a very baggy one-piece cheetah suit, just because it makes my son laugh. My sexy lingerie has been locked in a drawer for a while.

I don't like to fly. I've never been a good flyer. I have a lot of friends that have permanent nail marks in their arms... The moaning that comes from me when there is turbulence. It's awkward for everyone around.

Anything sweet, really sweet, that I have was nothing that I planned.

Women should do a lot more fighting. I don't think it's fair that we can't get into a good fight.

I don't like guys who will lie down and take it. I want someone who'll fight back. I like people who can argue well.

There's something sexy about a gut. Not a 400-pound beer gut, but a little paunch. I love that.

I'm not a fan of reality shows, but I am a fan of people who use their brains and skills and hard work to outsmart people, not to steal someone's man or get drunk on TV.

There's so many different ways to cheat. People think infidelity is the way to cheat. I think it's sometimes far worse to emotionally cheat on somebody.

I'm simply the mom who makes the lunch, drives to school, finds where the toys are, washes the clothes, and I'm here to play. And that's all I should be.

I've been in enough films where the studio wanted that extra little cuteness to make it sellable.

I didn't have a teenage or early-20s experience that was free and without worry. I missed the screw-everything, have-a-good-time phase.

I hate the term 'rom-com.'

I don't know if I always want to be in front of the camera. I love producing, I love the camaraderie. I love the adventures. I love the stress.

I don't want to be seen as the kind of person who does things and then expects publicity in return.

I've lived next door to people all my life. I don't know how cute they think I am.

I don't understand why there needs to be a love interest to make women go see a film. I think society sort of makes us feel that way - that if you don't have a guy, you're worthless.

You can't really dance properly to James Brown. If you dance to James Brown, you look like an idiot. There's a lot of jerking.

I've learned that success comes in a very prickly package. Whether you choose to accept it or not is up to you.

I like lists, I'm controlling, I like order. I'm difficult on every level.

Y'know, every relationship is different. There are good marriages, bad marriages, connected partners, unconnected partners.

There weren't roles for females in comedies for a really long time.

If you can't categorize a film for a studio, it's really difficult for them to wrap their heads around it and give you the money.

I don't want an opportunity to go missing because of my lack of organization.

Nothing makes me happier than dancing. It transforms me. It's the only time I let out what is inside and I feel completely sensual and sexy and alive.

It's sad when you say a $30 million film is an inexpensive film, but it is.

On the Hugh Grant romance rumours: We're not dating and I'm not pregnant. We have not kissed or touched. We have not fought and broken up.

I can't cry on demand. I need to feel what I'm feeling. I can't just say, 'Give me a moment' and then cry.

Now, I love men, but I don't need to always be talking about them.

Actually, they [ Hilary Clinton or Donald Trump] are doing pretty well on their own. They don't need my character to step in.

I think a lot of actors, comedians, musicians, artists are drawn to this world, because you're allowed to excavate whatever it is that you're struggling with, and hopefully turn it into art.

My mother was ahead of her time as a woman.

The people I find most beautiful are the ones who aren't trying.

I never realized that as a woman I would be looked at as less than until I was pretty deep in this business and realized, 'Oh my God. I'm being treated this way because I'm female.
