I just love math and most people don't.

I exercise at home - light cardio and yoga.

I feel blessed to be having a really easy pregnancy.

I've done a little directing, but I love acting more.

Confidence is one of the sexiest things in guys and girls.

I want girls to feel the confidence you get from being smart.

I'm the kind of person that responds strongly to a challenge.

It delights me that I don't fit the stereotype of an actress.

There's nothing unclassy about being naked, if it's appropriate.

Acting is my first love, and that's my main career, it really is.

Math is the only place where truth and beauty mean the same thing.

Math is like going to the gym for your brain. It sharpens your mind.

If you're beautiful, you're led to believe that you can't also be smart.

Let's make math fun and sexy and glamorous. Smart is sexy, that's one of my main messages.

I'll admit that I do quite like drinks that come in coconut shells. So there's always that.

Note to self: When noticing flyaway hairs, do not use lip gloss as an 'on-the-go' hair gel.

Math has a lot of negative stereotypes, but it can actually be fun and incredibly empowering.

I am definitely a serial monogamist. I can count on one hand the number of guys I've been with.

A lot of girls think they have to choose between being the smart geeky type or the beautiful bimbo.

Girls think that being glamorous means making mistakes and being irresponsible. And that's just not true.

Math proficiency is the gateway to a number of incredible careers that students may never have considered.

I learned my French through school. I was lucky in that the tutor on 'The Wonder Years' set spoke fluent French.

I was born in San Diego, and we moved to Los Angeles when I was seven. A couple of years later, I started acting!

I played Winnie Cooper on 'The Wonder Years' from ages 12-18, and did a few other movies during some of the summers.

There seems to be so much shame wrapped up in speech disabilities. It seems very sad and complicated all at the same time.

This much I'm sure of. Chances for winning = 1 - (# of math students playing)/ (# of math students cheering). That's a fraction.

There is an epidemic right now of girls dumbing themselves down... in middle school because they think it makes them attractive.

Believe it or not, lots of people change their majors and abandon their dreams just to avoid a couple of math classes in college.

Look at Michelle Pfeiffer: My God, she's 50 years old, but she is still so sexy. If I were into women, I would be totally into her.

There's no reason to stereotype yourself. Doing math is like going to the gym - it's a workout for your brain and it makes you smarter.

I love surprises - champagne and strawberries, all that pampering, romantic stuff. Guys ought to know how to pamper their women properly.

It's really cool when a guy tips 20 per cent quickly and effortlessly so that when the check comes, he opens it and signs his name and done.

Keep an eye on what your kids are seeing online. Parents need to stay involved in what their children are being exposed to. It's so important.

I've been just eating very healthy, all organic, no sugar, white flour, nothing artificial. I'm being so incredibly strict... not a lot of meat!

At the risk of being forgotten completely by the media, I went to college and pursued a passion that had nothing to do with acting: mathematics.

When you know that you can overcome challenges, you do gain that self-respect, and then you won't end up in a situation that you regret later on.

I want girls to feel the confidence you get from being smart. They get so many messages that tell them the most important thing is to be beautiful.

I know we can’t always know what medical surprises may happen during childbirth. But my hope is to go fully natural – no epidural, no interventions.

I never had little brothers, so I was totally not used to hearing a lot of cussing at a young age! I learned what 'pull my finger' meant the hard way.

Let's face it; by and large math is not easy, but that's what makes it so rewarding when you conquer a problem, and reach new heights of understanding.

When you do take the home pregnancy test, it doesn't quite seem real. But when you see the baby and the heartbeat on the ultrasound, it's so incredible.

If I had caused any trouble worth mentioning, you would have read about it in 'Star' magazine, which is probably why I didn't cause any trouble worth mentioning.

If anyone tells you it's impossible to be fabulous and smart and make a ton of money using math, well, they can just get in line behind you - and kiss your math.

I know we can't always know what medical surprises may happen during childbirth. But my hope is to go fully natural - no epidural, no interventions. Wish me luck.

When I originally entered UCLA, I had planned to go for a film major, but I kept finding myself taking math classes for fun, 'cause I missed them from high school!

I just did a spread in 'Maxim', I'm 35 years old. I've had women and parents email me asking if I should really be doing that, since I'm still considered a role model.

It's such a diversion to be constantly thinking of better ways I can teach people math that my hunger is for that really, for new ways of translating the beauty of it.

Relationships are not straight forward. They're not black and white. Sometimes things don't always going in a straight line, and that's okay. Love can be very confusing.

I've done a lot of surveys and interacted with a lot of students, and I was shocked to see that at 12 years old, girls are already talking about dumbing themselves down.

When girls are asking themselves 'Who am I?' for the first time and they hear all this bad PR about math, they think, 'Well, whoever I am, I'm not somebody who likes math.'
