"Where would you be without friends? The people to pick you up when you need lifting? We come from homes far from perfect, so you end up almost parent and sibling to your friends - your own chosen family. There's nothing like a really loyal, dependable, good friend. Nothing."

"We're all with Friends until Friends dies. If one of us goes, we all go. One of us wouldn't leave. It wouldn't be the show it is without each of us."

"Look I eat really well and I work out, but I also indulge when I want to. I don't starve myself in an extremist way. You're not taking away my coffee or my dairy or my glass of wine because I'd be devastated."

"Women should stop going for the bad guys, stop looking so far when the good ones are right there."

"Once you figure out who you are and what you love about yourself, I think it all kinda falls into place."

"I couldn't have found a better man than Brad. He still opens doors for me and brings me flowers. He's the sweetest goofball on the planet."

"I had an idea of what I thought was funny. It's kind of based on how I am."

"You know when I feel inwardly beautiful? When I am with my girlfriends and we are having a 'goddess circle'."

"I guess we'd be living in a boring, perfect world if everybody wished everybody else well."

"Don't rely on men but don't shun them either."

"I don't have a religion. I believe in a God. I don't know what it looks like but it's MY god. My own interpretation of the supernatural."

"In a man, I look for a friend, someone who's equal, with whom I'm comfortable."

"True love brings up everything - you're allowing a mirror to be held up to you daily."

"If somebody ever wished to be me for a day, they'd be the most pissed-off person once they got here. They would be, like, in hell."

"I always say don't make plans, make options."

"The greater your capacity to love, the greater your capacity to feel the pain."

"The first time I kissed Brad my knees went weak - I literally lost my breath!"

"I love that feeling of being in love, the effect of having butterflies when you wake up in the morning. That is special."

"I am trying to think of the last time that I just said, 'What the hell!' and did something crazy."

"When someone follows you all the way to the shop and watches you buy toilet roll, you know your life has changed."

"I've gone for each type: the rough guy; the nerdy, sweet, lovable guy; and the slick guy. I don't really have a type. Men in general are a good thing."

"The best smell in the world is that man that you love."

"I almost resent the whole fashion thing. Good God- never wearing the same thing twice and all of those things. It's a pain in the ass."

"That's what I hate about a lot of comedies, when you're hitting a line or making it funny."

"Really try to follow what it is that you want to do and what your heart is telling you to do."

"There are no regrets in life, just lessons."

"I don't know what it means to be a sex symbol. When I look myself on a magazine cover I don't see it as me, but as someone painted, fluffed, puffed and done up."

"Nobody thinks of themselves as sexy, really. Some days you go, 'Hey, I'm not going too bad today.' But if you try and be sexy, you'll never be sexy."

"You're damned if you're too thin and you're damned if you're too heavy. According to the press I've been both. Its impossible to satisfy everyone and I suggest we stop trying."

"I was told to avoid the business all together because of the rejection. People would say to me, 'Don't you want to have a normal job and a normal family?' I guess that would be good advice for some people, but I wanted to act."
