I've basically grown up with Harry Potter, as so many kids my age have. It's kind of a part of my life.

To lose your prejudices you must travel.

I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men.

You can't live without illusions, even if you must fight for them.

Careful grooming may take twenty years off a woman's age, but you can't fool a flight of stairs.

I think when you get on with the actors that you're working with, even if you do have really intimate scenes, as long as you get on well, and have a bit of a laugh while doing it, then it's fine.

Vampire teeth really aren't very efficient, are they? It looks very messy. I'm not sure it's the best way to get a pint off anyone.

I love a lot of comedy actors and actresses like Kristen Wiig and Tina Fey and all those women who are really brilliant and funny.

I've grown up with my parents' music tastes, listening to Fleetwood Mac and the Rolling Stones.

Joe Wright was almost like a teacher, to be firm with me, that really stuck with me. And that helped me as I've gotten older.

I'm Irish, so I'm messing all the time. Which means, I'm having a laugh. I'm always making jokes.

I like to get far away from myself when I'm acting.

I play basketball, I surf and swim and go to the cinema and listen to music and read. I like shopping.

I don't know what kind of swag I'd get if I were extra Irish. It would just be, like, extra potatoes. Or like a free pint of Guinness.

Acting is one of these things that I can't really describe - it's just like, why do you love your mum and dad? You know, you just do.

I'm all right, not as good as my mom is. Maybe because I don't have kids.

I really want to go to college.

There's no one out there like Quentin Tarantino. His films have a signature look, and they never just stick to the same kind of story.

The majority of teenagers don't even make eye contact with people, even people of the same age.
