Something I've realized lately to my shock is that I am an optimist in that I think humans are almost infinitely capable of self-change and self-modification and that we really can build the future that we want if we're smart about it.

I'm still driving along on the pop freeway of life. Thinking even further into the future I definitely want to make an acoustic record. I want to try lots of different things.

Those people who develop the ability to continuously acquire new and better forms of knowledge that they can apply to their work and to their lives will be the movers and shakers in our society for the indefinite future.

Everything seems fine until you're about 40. Then something is definitely beginning to go wrong. And you look in the mirror with your old habit of thinking 'While I accept that everyone grows old and dies it's a funny thing but I'm an exception to that rule.'

That's a funny thing fame. People definitely do treat you differently. When you begin to be successful people say 'Don't go changing.' Well that's easy to say but the fact is you don't change at all - other people do.

I'm on so late I'm definitely the last seconds of anyone's attention. So I just want to give them something dumb to laugh at so they go 'That's funny ' then fall asleep.

I had the classic 40 meltdown. I did. It's embarrassing. It was pretty funny. But then I recovered. To me it was like a second adolescence. Hormonally my body was changing my mind was changing and so my relationship to myself and the world around me came to this assault of finiteness.

Love demands infinitely less than friendship.

I definitely wanted to earn my freedom. But the primary motivation wasn't making money but making an impact.

I wasn't a woman who stayed tiny like I thought I would. I definitely gave myself the freedom to eat what I wanted.

I love the freedom of movement that my phone gives me. That has definitely transformed my life.

Music is my No. 1 passion. If you made me choose between music and food it's definitely music.

I add a lot of citrus to my food and I think that flavors it. And to me that what makes it healthier lower in fat lower in calories. It adds lots of flavor. Spices of course. But citrus is definitely kind of my go-to to season and really to really make those flavors make that food come alive.

I can't eat whatever I want definitely not. I'm always controlled because I do a lot of fitness and triathlons not just Formula One so I always make sure I eat the right things.

Infinite growth of material consumption in a finite world is an impossibility.

With Alexander's cancer I was definitely brought to my knees for the first time because of the fear factor.

I definitely think cheerleaders have no fear.

Americans are terrified because so many of them have been laid off in recent years and months and they fear that they may be next. Even if they have not been laid off or have not known anyone laid off they definitely know someone who has lost his home.

My goal and my career is definitely not to be famous. That's a really horrible goal just to be famous for the sake of having fame.

If somebody tells me I'm famous I say 'I'm not.' I can't see myself as famous and I don't think I'll ever call myself famous. I definitely don't feel famous.

I'd definitely rather be rich than famous.

Uncle Brett had a definite vision that he was after I don't think having a famous father affected him much.

I definitely wanted to be an actor. I didn't want to be on TV I didn't want to be famous I didn't want to be anyone in particular I just wanted to do it. I see young people now who look at magazines or American Idol and their goal is to have that lifestyle - to have good handbags or go out with cute guys from shows or whatever. But I definitely wanted to be an actor.

There's a definite responsibility that comes with being famous. You shouldn't be able to just dress up and look pretty.
