Mariska Hargitay

Of course everyone says they hate baby talk, but mine was not annoying.

I look at all the things life has allowed me to do, and I feel like the luckiest person in the world.

I am grateful that I didn't let fear get the best of me. It only holds you back from possibilities and greatness.

I had this wild imagination. I was never me. All my childhood photos, I'm in fancy dress, playing a Russian refuge or Marvelous Mad Madam Mim.

I like to erase lines between categories. Why separate cookbook writing from writing, healthy from good tasting? I want to be open to possibilities.

Do not give in too much to feelings. A overly sensitive heart is an unhappy possession on this shaky earth.
