Quotes by Poppy Montgomery
You can make all the birth plans in the world, but at the end of the day – go with the flow.
There is nothing that anyone can say to prepare you for childbirth. Each woman’s experience is so different; you never know how it will be for you!
I love men – everything about them: the way they look, the way they smell, the way they feel. I love their minds.
When you spend seven years with a group of people and suddenly you’re not together, it’s very jarring.
I have spent too long training myself to speak with an American accent, it’s ingrained. I spend 16 hours a day on set speaking with an American accent. Now, when I try to speak with an Aussie accent, I just sound like a caricature of myself.
