Gwyneth Paltrow [1] stuns on the cover of Glamour's March issue, and inside, the actress gets incredibly real [2] when talking about everything from her conscious uncoupling [3] from Coldplay's Chris Martin [4] to the ongoing controversy surrounding her lifestyle company, Goop [5]. Love her or hate her, she definitely does things her own way and doesn't let the haters get her down. Read on for her best quotes, and then check out all the times her life was on a completely different level [6].
![On her current relationship with ex Chris Martin: "We spend a lot of time together. He's been away for two weeks [promoting his album]. Last night he got in at midnight and slept here so he could surprise the kids in the morning, we could all have breakfast, and he could take them to school. So . . . we're not living together, but he's more than welcome to be with us whenever he wants. We're still very much a family, even though we don't have a romantic relationship. He's like my brother."
On whether she'll ever get married again: "I don't know. I guess so. I mean, I believe in marriage. But I'm not even divorced yet! So give me a minute."
On how her father's death inspired Coldplay's new music: "I was so traumatized by his death; one of the things that surprised me so much was how the world kept going in its complete flurry of events. I couldn't reconcile it, I was so devastated, and my heart was so broken. I wouldn't say I wrote the lyrics. I would say that concept inspired Chris. Then he said, 'Will you come and sing?' So I went."](https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/ps-image-unavailable.png "On her current relationship with ex Chris Martin: \"We spend a lot of time together.

On her California girl gang: "If you were to ask me what my biggest success is, it's that I've been able to maintain and nourish my relationships. My women friends are incredibly intelligent. There's no posturing, no competition. Especially in Los Angeles, I see pockets of friends who are very competitive, and I think, What is the point? I would rather be alone in bed with a book than have a girlfriend who is like that."
On the negative energy surrounding her company: "Sometimes I'll get annoyed if someone's like, 'Goop is so expensive.' I'm like, 'Have you looked at the website? I'm like, 'If you want to f--k with me, bring your A-game. At least have all your information.' Once in a while, if I'm exhausted and overwhelmed, I'll be like, 'Ugh, that bugs me,' or, 'That hurt my feelings.' But very rarely. I don't lose sleep over it. It's my business to live my life and learn my lessons. I don't care what anybody else thinks."
On how the media tries to pit her against other female entrepreneurs: "It's so incredibly sexist. But I think we're in the midst of creating a new archetype of a woman, and we're gonna get there. And I've never minded pushing anything along, taking some slings and arrows. Our daughters will look at us and be like, 'Oh, so you get to work and be a mommy and wear beautiful lipstick.' I mean, when they have a hole in their uniform, I sew it. I make the food; I bathe them. And I'm a sexual being and a powerful woman and entrepreneur. I'm all of those things."
