I like being part of good movies and telling stories that mean something to me. I also like playing characters that I look up to.

I’m not the easiest person to live with. I’m kind of a slob.

I'm so spoiled - I must have a Starbucks vanilla latte every day.

I really can't deny it, I am who I am. I'm pretty normal. I'm not that smooth type of girl. I run into things, I trip, I spill food. I say stupid things... I really don't have it all together.

I'm free of an abusive cult, based on money and power that worships a fictional deity and safely back with the Catholic Church.

I have some road rage inside of me. Traffic, especially in L.A., is a pet peeve of mine.

Pretty, and you may be talented, but nobody will remember that if you're mean.

We all keep dreaming, and luckily, dreams come true.

I wasn't very funny or flashy, I was kind of boring.

I got caught kissing. Like by my parents. It was so horrible. It's so embarrassing, I'm blushing.

Becoming a mother has been the most amazing experience - in an instant you become strong. You have to be a little bit wiser; it's the most important job in the world.

The world does not know how to concentrate on working.

These tools were my parents’ way of saying: What you’re doing is important. We support it. We want to help you find your way.

Most people do not have a problem with you thinking for yourself, as long as your conclusions are the same as or at least compatible with their beliefs.

A hedge between keeps friendships green.

If I had stayed with football in college, I probably would have been a first-round pick.

It is monstrous that the feet should direct the head.

Believing in yourself you gain confidence, which allows you to relax. Relaxation is one of the most important parts about acting.

I just think that culturally, women - we're all human beings - but at least we don't have our masculinity to prove.

Victorian sorrow: the stars are winking in the sky, but not for us.

If you are always frightened for yourself you can't act, and then life loses its purpose. You just have to tell yourself that, when you get right down to it, you don't matter all that much.
