Quotes by Ginnifer Goodwin

“Once you get past the logistics and the shock, you actually fall in love with them.”

“In the society we are representing, there are these women for whom this is the answer to their problems, not a problem in and of itself. It will bowl over our audience, and will educate them.”

“Polygamy is just the backdrop.”

“I think its funny how there are a thousand shows out there, and a thousand movies, that are glorifying (extramarital) affairs, while this man is being completely honest with his wives.”

You know, one of my biggest dreams in life is to play a Disney princess.

I really am super lazy and doing long hair, especially mine, is a big pain in the butt. Its filled with cowlicks and kinks and curls and frizz - and it was taking too much time in the morning.

Couldnt start the morning without caffeine.

With the counseling of my family doctor, my mother ended up turning to Weight Watchers and their childrens program. I went to weekly meetings, got counseling and would exercise with my peers who were my size. It was the first time I saw a proper childrens portion size, and it wasnt two burgers, it was one.

I love Valentines Day! I love it, I love it, I love it. I like having doors opened for me. My favorite romantic comedy is When Harry Met Sally.

But I love being scared. I think youre brave only when you do things that scare you. Ive always used fear as a motivator. Im not sure why.

Ive never had body issues, Ive never had an eating disorder. Ive never had to go on a diet and thats because of Weight Watchers.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I dont know why anyone would want to ask an actor for dating advice. We are not the poster children for healthy relationships.

Im so an all-or-nothing person in dating, always. Im big on not wasting time. And so, yeah, if somethings not working, its time to not hold people back.

Sometimes I make very selfish choices; like I did Once Upon A Time for my inner 8-year-old and my hypothetical future child. Ive done some movies because I would regret them if I didnt, but other projects Ive done because theyve scared me or if I felt I needed to do a big romantic comedy to help me professionally.

Ive always been sort of addicted to genre-jumping. Ive never been in the mood to do the same thing I did last time. Hence, me going from Big Love to romantic comedy, to period film... I cant sit still.

Im a better person in a relationship, and Im a happier person. I need to come home at the end of the day and have it not be about me and my freaking hair and makeup and character motivations anymore. And I think my work is more inspired when home is safe and sound and solid, because what I do for a living is so bananas and so insecure.

I know now that there are men out there who are, for me, the whole package, who are supportive of my successes because they know I will be just as supportive of theirs. Im less tolerant of foolishness now; I know that its important I not tie myself up with the wrong person, because then I will miss the right person coming along.
