On being happy at 40:

“For the first time in my life I’m content. I’m so excited. Getting older is the best part of life. Like, I know more than I’ve ever known. I have gratitude. I know myself better. I feel more capable than ever. And as far as the physicality of it – I feel better at 40 than I did at 25.”

On having not been all that keen on marriage:

"It just wasn't the thing I was drawn to. I certainly didn't want it in my 20s. Or my 30s."

On what she's drawn to when it comes to fellas:

"I want someone who takes care of themselves, who's strong. To hear people are engaged in life like that is exciting to me."

On the prospects of having children:

"I don't need to have the children in my life be a part of my literal flesh. And anyway, there's still a possibility of that, I ain't that old. I'm feeling very ... capable."
