On marriage and motherhood:
"Those are such boring topics to me. I am not that girl. I am superstitious. I don't like talking about things that I want in the future because I feel by verbalizing them they won't come true."
On her boyfriend Ryan Gosling:
"He's amazing. He's your dream co-star. I have never felt so creatively satisfied on a film."
On struggling with body issues:
"It doesn't matter what you have or what you look like. It's something everyone has to work at. I realize I have contributed to a certain happy, heathy, empowered image, but that's not all of me. I felt it's important to let women know I have similar struggles."
On her get-gorgeous secrets:
"I run four to five times a week, I don't eat meat - and my skin looks a lot better for it."
On her drive to get what she wants:
"I want it all - heaven and hell. I am very much a go-where-live-takes me kind of person, but I do take care of myself, and what I do have is control over how I live my life.'
