I'm incredibly naive.

Don't live vicariously through your kids or try to shape them into who you wanted to be, like the popular kid or an athlete. Children should be given the opportunity to be themselves.

It's important to being a healthy person. So while you're here on the earth, you might as well enjoy it. And it's hard to enjoy things when you're crazy.

I think it's fun to have work that you can relate to, that you can feel like is meaningful.

Sometimes I sing and dance around the house in my underwear. Doesn't make me Madonna. Never will.

I think that everything's hard now anyways, so you might as well do stuff that you love and believe in.

I tend to fight for something that I believe in.

I think I've always been interested in playing people who are judged very harshly.

For years, I hated myself. I covered the mirrors in my house. I literally couldn't have a mirror in my room.

I knew I would never be cast as the pretty girl.

As a teenager, my favourite rejection was, 'She looks too healthy,' which of course translates as, 'She needs to lose weight.'

It's fun to be sarcastic, but now I'm able to express myself in a way that's much more sincere.

To play someone who is who they are because of the happiness and contentedness that they've known in their life is interesting because of sort of how banal it is.

I think the thing that I always try to do - because it piques my interest - is to play really different parts all the time.

What you feel is important may not be what the director feels is important.

There are a lot of theories about Shakespeare.

I don't think I like characters who are afraid and ashamed of who they are.

I'm an actor who hates dialogue and the present day and reality.

I've never been to a race car race before.
