“For me the only reason to get married was my children. I had a therapist who said marriage is really a container for a family. Freud says you need love and work, and a family and a job give you a balance. One element can’t give you everything. You can have friends in movies and plays you make, but they’re not your family. And you can’t expect family to give you the stimulation work is going to provide, because that is not their responsibility.” -Julianne Moore explaining why she only married husband, Bart Freundlich, for the children. They have been a couple since 1996 and didn’t get married until 2003.

“I chose to get married because, essentially, you’re given a deck of cards in life. The hand you were dealt with is your family and you can’t choose them.

I’m choosing you as my family and we’re going to love each other through thick and thin.” -Jessica Alba weighing in on marriage to Cosmo UK.

“[During filming], you had everyone come in your trailer and you had vodka and I wasn’t used to that, but I had an almost 2-year-old and I was up for it. And I remember in the end it dwindled down [to a few people] and you put your arm around Scott [Cooper, the director] and said, ‘This is our leader, man, this is our leader.’ And I wasn’t sure, but I went with you because you said that and you said that with all your heart … And I know something about his heart, and he deserves every award that you guys could come up with to give him.” -Maggie Gyllenhaal to Jeff Bridges (who she co-stars with in Crazy Heart) as she presented him with the best actor prize Tuesday night at AARP the Magazine’s the Ninth Annual Movies for Grownup Awards, at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills.

“Mother-in-laws can get annoying once you have a baby because they’re trying to tell you how to raise your baby, and I don’t like anyone telling me how to raise my baby.

I think that’s what makes a cool grandma – to shut up!” -Jenny McCarthy on becoming a grandmother to Jim Carrey’s daughter, Jane’s new baby.  Jane is due in the next three weeks.

Delaney is 15-years-old, Emma is 11-years-old, and Ava is 4-years-old.
