1. (regarding her role in "The Aviator") I'd like to stress that I only have a small role. Oh, who am I kidding? There are no small roles in a Martin Scorsese film. 2. It was such a turning point to find that I had a talent and I had something to contribute, somewhere.
4. I have learned to delegate.
5. (regarding pursuing a solo music career away from her rock group, No Doubt) They are my best friends, so when I told them that I wanted to try something solo they responded in the way that best friends do. It was a matter of timing. We've all been growing up and our priorities have changed. Then I went and got married and my priorities certainly changed.
7. It's super fun being a mom, but it's hard too.
8. (regarding her first solo album, Love Angel Music Baby) This album is just about me. Although at times I think there's less of me on this than anything I've done because of all the people involved.
10. I remember when I was in school, they would ask: "What are you going to be when you grow up?" and then you'd have to draw a picture of it. I drew a picture of myself as a bride.
12. At a certain point I'm going to want to have a family and I'm not going to have time to be running around the world doing this shit and being greedy. I can always write songs. But can I always wear an Alice-in-Wonderland costume? I probably shouldn't. I can at home.
14. It's always odd to talk about my fashion. It's something you look at-you don't need to talk about it.
16. My parents always pushed creativity on us, but they made it seem like the fun thing to do.
18. My songs are basically my diaries. Some of my best songwriting has come out of time when I've been going through a personal nightmare.
20. Sometimes you have to sacrifice your performance for high heels.
21. I think I've been able to fool a lot of people because I know I'm a dork. I'm a geek.
23. I like the old, vintage Hollywood look.
25. Out of all the artistic things I do, music is the most rewarding because it's so hard to write songs.
26. Life is short and you've got to get the most out of it.
28. I have to tell everyone everything that's going on. It is different once you're married, because that's sacred.
30. I was a different person before I started to write. When I realized I could be a songwriter and that people would listen - that was when I started feeling good in my life.
32. You can't plan anything, right? You can try.
33. My priorities are always going to be my husband and my family now. That's a huge, huge thing.
35. I remember so vividly the first song I ever wrote. It was called "Different People."
37. I think everyone has gifts and everyone has talents. If you are successful at it, it feels really good but it never really penetrates completely. There are moments where I think that we made an amazing record and I'm so proud of it, but I don't wake up and go: "Wow, I'm amazing".
39. Writing songs is super intimate. It's a bit like getting naked.
40. I try not to be but I'm super-neurotic about diet. I'm neurotic about trying not to be neurotic! I'm like every other girl. I have to try really hard my whole life to try to be fit. And I'm super-vain. And I want to wear cute clothes.
42. You know, I was chubby when I was a little girl. And I have all those issues everyone else has. But I try not to. And I've learned over the years that it's such a waste of time. And people like me whether I'm a little bit fatter or not.
44. You're always tellin' me to go out more: "Go ahead, get out and see the world", But then I think: "why should I? I'd rather stay home and cry".
45. I don't fight with people - like, I can barely fight with my husband because I'll just start crying instead.
47. When you first have a baby your life doesn't change. I mean, you have a little less sleep and you drag these cuddly things around you and it's just amazing. But you still get to be you. Once they get to, like, five, six and school and it starts to get, like: "Wow, they got real problems. They're my responsibility." Oh my God. That is overwhelming.
49. I imagine my children are going to save me from my vanity and be my passion and fill whatever fears I have of the amazing time I'm having right now being gone.
51. I thought that I was going to be like this earth mother. When people would complain about being pregnant, I was like: "What are you talking about? It's incredible! Just enjoy it."
53. A miracle…my biggest accomplishment is my marriage so far. Because it's hard, everyone knows it's hard.
55. Although I'd always wanted children, it was such an opposite thing to being a singer.
56. I'm just, like, totally normal. The fact that any of this has happened, that we're sitting here at the Beverly Hills Hotel just gets me going, like: "What?"
58. I'd like to have no rules and eat what I want, but I've learned over the years that I'm so disappointed when I can't wear the clothes I want to wear.
59. And if I let myself down, appear on stage when I'm not looking my best, it's not fun for me. I just beat myself up about it.
61. As a famous person you think how you're gonna end it, get away and have a normal life.
63. At first it was my brother's songwriting and I was just doing what everyone told me.
64. I'm vain enough to want do a movie again, but right now more roles are the last thing on my list.
66. I've always been a girl who loves to dress up.
67. Being in a band you can wear whatever you want - it's like an excuse for halloween everyday.
69. Every day I fail at something.
70. If I wasn't even famous or had any success, I would still wake up and put tons of make-up on, and put on a cool outfit. That's always been who I've been my whole life, so that's never gonna change. I love fashion. I love getting dressed up. I love Halloween, too.
72. If you're not Prince, you're never going to sound like Prince.
73. Everything works out how it should.
74. It takes a lot of selfish time to make music.
76. I don't have a strong sense of self-worth unless I'm doing something.
77. It feels like the more I'm out there in the public eye, the more criticism I get. You need to have confidence - that's what it takes to walk out there and sing a song in front of a huge group of people.
