[on Lisa Kudrow:] She's Like The Best

Once Women Find A Way To Form Community, Everyone Reaps The Rewards.

Through Clinton And Monica, Clinton And Hillary, The Scandal, The Impeachment, Iraq, Bruce And Demi, Ellen And Anne, I Have Remained Consistently And Nauseatingly Adorable. I Have, In Fact, Been Known To Cause Diabetes.

I Am Convinced, Completely Convinced, That There Was Nothing Random About [the Adoption], She Is The Daughter I Should Have.

All Of [motherhood] Surprised Me. It Surprised Me From The Very First Second I Saw Jack. I'd Believed That My Pregnancy Was A Condition. It Never Computed. And There He Was. Everyone Made Fun Of Me Because I Stared At Him For Months And Months, Not Being Able To Believe He Was Real.

I Love What You Might Call Brutal Elegance. Where Form And Function Are Really Obvious. There Is Nothing Easily Broken In This House.
