I don’t get angry very often. I lose my temper rarely. And when I do, there’s always a legitimate cause. Normally I have a great lightness of being. I take things in a very happy, amused way.

In this self-description, Roberts frames her public and private persona as fundamentally buoyant—someone who meets daily irritations with humor rather than hostility. The careful qualifiers (“rarely,” “when I do,” “legitimate cause”) suggest a moral logic to anger: it is not a habitual reflex but a response reserved for moments she deems justified. The closing emphasis on “lightness of being” and an “amused” outlook positions emotional ease as a chosen stance, implying resilience and perspective. As a celebrity statement, it also functions as image-making: asserting emotional steadiness and approachability while acknowledging that boundaries exist and can be defended when necessary.
