Nicole Kidman talks about her ex-Tom Cruise, married life and CHILDREN in the December issue of Vogue. We’ve already showed you the pics but here are some experts from the interview.

On marrying young:
“You get the advice ‘Don’t get married when you’re 22,’ and you just think, They don’t know what they’re talking about! But now I look back and think, Oh, there’s probably some truth to that.”

On marriage:
“Not giving up who you are, I think that’s the big lesson.”

On her marriage to Tom Cruise:
“Honestly, I would have stayed married for the rest of my life. It’s not like I regret who I was in that marriage; I don’t at all. It was eleven years of my life. It wasn’t 50 years; it turned out to be 11.”

On meeting Urban:
“I was very wary, and damaged…It wasn’t that I’d give up hope, I was just…asleep. But now I feel like I’ve woken up again. Rather than living through characters, I’ve learned to be myself.”

On life with her husband:
“We spend an enormous amount of time together, and we’re determined to do that. I’ve spent too much time away from my family, and I just have no desire to live like that.”

On having more children:
“I’d like to be a mother again. I always thought I’d eventually live on a Fijian island. I love the idea of being in a sarong, with hair down to my bum and kids following my around and hanging out.”

On settling in Nashville, TN:
“This is my home now. This is the most time I’ve spent anywhere in years. I wanted to be earthed, and I didn’t feel earthed for so long, maybe not since I was a child…I don’t feel like I’m floating around, which is how it had been for many years, probably because I wasn’t that happy.”
