On Her Marriage to Dax Shepard

  • "This isn't a special fairytale. This is two people who worked really hard and it's attainable for you if you work really hard in your marriage too."
  • "Rejoice in what makes the other person happy, and allow them their individual interests. Know that everyone is doing the best they can with what they've got. So get a bigger emotional toolbox to fix your problems."
  • "I think what alleviates the pressure-cooker of monogamy is understanding that your partner's attraction to someone else is nothing to do with you. I talk about who I'm attracted to in front of Dax, and he'll say: "I could never pick your type out in a line-up!"."
  • "All these movies from the '80s taught us that it's love at first sight, and it is supposed to be easy and [that] all you have to do is find that person. It took me a while to realise, 'Oh, that was such a lie,' because things that you work really, really, really hard for always yield the best results."
