But it's just been a mirror of the way my career's been from the beginning, so for it to have changed would have been strange. My career has never been perfect.” “I don't have high expectations anymore. Maybe they've just been beaten out of me.” “I may be the girl next door, but you wouldn't want to live next to me.” |
