Hermione is so close to who I am as a person that I've never really had to research a role. I'm literally rediscovering what it means to be an actress.

IT IS TIME THAT WE ALL SEE GENDER AS A SPECTRUM INSTEAD OF TWO SETS OF OPPOSING IDEALS.

There's nothing wrong with being afraid. It's not the absence of fear, it's overcoming it. Sometimes you've got to blast through and have faith.

Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive. Both men and women should feel free to be strong... It is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum not as two opposing sets of ideals.

Gender equality, historically has been predominantly a women's movement for women. But I think the impact of gender inequality and how it's affecting men hasn't really been addressed.

My idea of sexy is that less is more. The less you reveal the more people can wonder.

Hermione uses all these big long tongue twister words. I don't know what she's going on about half the time!

I have collections of quirky things from places I've been to, like a set of Russian dolls.

I don't have makeup on all the time, but when I want, I have fun with my friends choosing clothes and putting nail polish on.

Feeling beautiful has nothing to do with what you look like. I promise.

All I can do is follow my instincts, because I'll never please everyone.

Are we slaves of our pasts? or can we rise above it?

If this is really it...if you're really done with me...will you let me hold you tonight? - Travis

We don’t get a chance to do that many things, and every one should be really excellent. Because this is our life.

I think the problem, to be quite honest with you, is that you've never actually known what the question is.

Some forms of truth are really forms of social power and oppression.

If you can see the invisible, then you can see the possible and provide the opportunities for trust, commitment and ways of empowering others to manage their past, present and future.

Since Life is but a Dream, Why toil to no avail?

No one should dogmatize about the capacity of human nature for degradation or exaltation.

Flinch not, neither give up nor despair, if the achieving of every act in accordance with right principle is not always continuous with thee.
