Quotes

Gwyneth: (considering if she will have a third child in the future) I may force myself to do it one more time because the result is so worth it. And also my late dad Bruce said to me that his only regret in life was that he had only two children and he didn't have more. (edit)
Gwyneth: From the beginning, my kids have eaten organic. I make a lot of their foods myself. Some people say it sounds difficult, but I don't find it so. The more I learn about food, the more amazed I am at how their properties can basically fix anything. My main feeling is that the more you keep the body as pure and healthy as possible, the healthier you will be. I feel that eating well is the best start for living well. (edit)
Gwyneth: (commenting on her daughter, Apple's, name) It sounded so sweet and it conjured such a lovely picture for me- you know, apples are so sweet and they're just wholesome and it's biblical - and I just thought it sounded so lovely and... clean! And I just thought, "Perfect!" (edit)
Gwyneth: Being a housewife is definitely the hardest job. (edit)
Gwyneth: (on her daughter Apple) Nothing is as good as hanging out with her. She's a riot. She's such a happy, well-adjusted person. I must be doing something right. (edit)
