I was always being athletic, climbing trees and running after boys, just being trouble. It was always in me.
It never bothered me when people would say, 'You only win championships because you're playing with Shaq.' It bothered me when he said it.
The only moment I become aware of being the only woman in a meeting is when actresses are being discussed. If someone's critical of how a woman looks, they turn to me and apologize.
People say that I must get bothered when someone stops me for an autograph or a photo. I'll get bothered when no one asks me. Being asked means people haven't forgotten the time I played.
I grew up barefoot, dirty, climbing trees. It made me appreciate things more.

The lives of people are like young trees in a forest. They are being choked by climbing vines. The vines are old thoughts and beliefs planted by dead men.
Stories are the only thing that I can be bothered with. It's the only way that I can do anything, even if I'm quite useless. It's the only area in being human where I could be a little useful.

I'm a married woman, so I'm not bothered what other men think of me - but I still want James to fancy me.
One of the only things that bothered me with WWE and being on every week was blowing off so many great storylines so fast, just out of necessity.
The kids have got their iPads, but they prefer to get out climbing trees and coming out with me. That's the kind of learning I want them to have: experiences.
I grew up wearing trousers and climbing trees.
In particular, with climbing, we're climbing on these surfaces that Mother Nature has created. We search out the most perfect pieces of rock. It's so amazing that these formations are so perfect for climbing on. It's almost as if they were created for climbing.
