Sandra Bullock looked absolutely stunning in her purple dress, though she got a little worried that it might be see through in the lights when she stepped on stage in the press room after winning her Best Actress Golden Globe for The Blind Side. As usual, she gushed about the real-life family the movie was based on and she also had some very sweet things to say about her two- and three-legged doggies. Here's a few more highlights from Sandra:

On having such success after taking a break from Hollywood: "How crazy is that? What is the metaphor here? Let go, and go to food. It will get you awards. I do think you need to get away from this town to where your art can exist. I become things I shouldn't be. I go to where I can be myself and be more clear. I'm just really lucky because the performances this year — I don't know how you can choose."

On how to top this year: "I don't want to top it. I've always said I was really happy before all this because I found what my happiness was. I didn't want to leave home. I was so happy at home and I'd never had that before, so leaving that – it had to be amazing."

On the double standard between men and women over 40: "It's still a little bit different, but it's gotten so much better. I look back at my year and I say wow, I had such great successes and they were written by men — The Proposal and The Blind Side. I just feel that if you write it, they will come. But you also need to get a studio to finance it, there are so many variables. You look at what Sarah Jessica Parker has done, Meryl Streep — I mean, women do pull in some money."
