Women perform great in the box office. Audiences want to see lead female characters.

Someone doesn't think immediately, "I want to be a lobbyist."

I'm very sensitive in real life. I cannot not cry if someone around me is crying. I will start to cry if someone is crying, even if it's not appropriate. I have that thing in me, a weakness or sensitivity.

I'm really lucky because my goal, as an actor, is to disappear into the characters that I'm playing.

I love fall because I love the whole cuddling aspect of it, and a sweater dress has that vibe of I'm going to hunker down and be warm, but it's also very feminine.

I think you have to take the whole idea of wage equality out of the film industry.

I love being around great actors and film-makers, and I try to hide the fact that I'm in awe of them.

I've had to learn how to say 'no' to offers.

Look, if anyone is scared, I got your back.

I'm inspired by people who are so sensitive and vulnerable that they try to cover it up.

Whatever anyone says, I think the opposite will happen.

I have problems because I'm very expressive, and usually red lipstick gets on my teeth and face.

I'm very much a hippie from Northern California.

I don't like the idea that fame could mean that people can no longer relate to me.

You know, it's recently come into focus for me why I want to be an actor: It's because of the connection I feel to people.

I've spent my life being embarrassed.

I try not to fake anything.

Put others before yourself, unselfish love, do unto others as you would have done to you.

We need more points of view from women and we need more support for female directors and writers in the industry.
