My mom and father are extremely proud. They love it when I don't die. I've done so many movies where I've died that their first question when I book a job is 'So are you going to die in this?'

Before I was a mom I used to think that parents who worried about their kids watching MTV were just clueless. Now that I'm a mom I see what the fuss was all about!

My mom always said that if the Protestants catch a Catholic in their church they feed them to the Jews.

I have a 16 year-old son so I'm now a soccer mom. I stand on the sidelines and I hear the things parents are saying so I want them to understand what it is their kids are feeling in any sports environment.

Not that we didn't have close relationships with our parents - I'm very close to my mom - but parents didn't think anything of going off for a few weeks and leaving their kids.

I have to keep reminding myself that I am their mother. Sometimes we are sitting at home and I feel like we are waiting for our mom to come home.

I spend as much time with my kids as any mom who stays home. I only work during the hours they're at school but there is always the sense of trying to catch up with all their stuff and not only organize my work life but also their school lives.

My mom had started to go to work when I was nine or ten so I was aware of women trying to find their own identities by working. But I was still influenced by men to such an extreme. I wanted to play their games and wanted to compete in their world and be like them.

Mom and Pop were proud of my popularity but from their point of view show business was no way to make a living.

I think my mom put it best. She said 'Little girls soften their daddy's hearts.'

I'm a soccer mom. I'm T-ball soccer karate homework keeping them on their schedules. I love being the snack mom when I get to bring the cut oranges. I have one of those coolers with wheels. I'm at every game every practice sitting on my blanket. I love it.

I remember getting this scrapbook that this girl made that I actually gave to my mom to hold onto because she has a 'Twilight' shrine in their house in Florida. It was just this scrapbook of me starting with 'Twilight ' and the whole progression of me and my career throughout that and other stuff that I had done in between.

I've actually suffered from allergies my entire life. My mom had allergies so I was aware of what an issue they can be. Many people allow their allergies to affect their lives. As a mom with two kids and two jobs I just can't let allergies slow me down. It's a day to day thing that can really be remedied by finding the right medication.

I was thinking that when I have children that I should always dress as a character for them so they think their mom is Alice in Wonderland or Cinderella. It would be totally messed up!

With my new venture Club Mom we want to empower moms to feel their value and also build their collective power to make their lives better and easier. We want to bring them together as a community to share experiences and information.

The best situation is being a single parent. The best part about is that you get time off too because the kids are with their mom so it's the best of both worlds. There's a lot to be said for it.

I think my mother is my biggest influence. There are so many things I hate about her but at the same time I'm thankful for her. All I know is that when I'm a parent I want to be just like my mom. I can talk to my mom more than any of my friends could talk to their parents.

I may be the only mother in America who knows exactly what their child is up to all the time.

What do girls do who haven't any mothers to help them through their troubles?

Who in their infinite wisdom decreed that Little League uniforms be white? Certainly not a mother.

I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive but I have photographs of her.

Mothers are fonder than fathers of their children because they are more certain they are their own.

In a free society the state does not administer the affairs of men. It administers justice among men who conduct their own affairs.
