Quotes

Meg Ryan: I've been an actress and famous person since I was 19 years old. I just needed to be with my son and figure out my life and see what I wanted. I felt like I was very reactive about my life as opposed to being proactive. (edit)
Meg Ryan: He (Russell Crowe) is a very specific actor. You know, he's so capable - just the way he deals with props is amazing. (edit)
Meg Ryan: (about boxing) There is something about the sport that is so filmic... there is something about the availability and the purity of these two guys who are absolutely stripped down to a very, very primal contest. (edit)
Meg Ryan(on her adopted daughter, Daisy): I am convinced, completely and utterly convinced, that there was nothing random about the adoption. She is the daughter I should have. I never felt like I was on a rescue mission or anything like that. I just really wanted a baby. I was on a mission to connect with somebody, and Daisy and I got to meet each other in this way at this time. We are so compatible. (edit)
Meg Ryan:People say that chivalry is dead, I don't think that it's dead, I think it's just got the 'flu! (edit)
