I'm a very physical person. I hug people, more so than shake hands.

Never be ashamed of what or how you feel... just be honest.

I will never be a waif. I want to market myself as a healthy-looking woman who is an action-star kind of girl.

There was one time I wrestled two boys and I beat them both! They weighed a lot less than I did and I think they didn't want to hurt a girl, so I don't know if I really won - I'd like to think I did.

I was cast in 'Thor' back in 2009, so it sort of took me out of the running for anything tied to DC Comics.

I actually read “Wonder Woman,” and here’s the thing about her: she’s more of a physical presence than anything else. You don’t get to really know her on the inside.

I think that when people look at me, and they look at my height and my voice and my coloring, they automatically think, "Tough."

I'm blessed with very fast memorization skills, so I don't have to read it too far in advance.

I try to do yoga when I can to make sure that I'm flexible and that I'm not going to tear any muscle or pull anything.

I got into the business all by chance. I really enjoy what I do now, but it wasn't always a huge dream of mine. I think I always had thought about it growing up, though.

If I find the right character, I don't care if it's a film, a television show or a play, I'm gonna do it. Everybody crosses over and it's just one big pool of stuff now.

Don’t just exist

This party is just full of children, and someone needs to leave them in a hot car.

I have several dogs and several cats who aren't really mine. In fact, they think that I am theirs. I'd like to have some goats and chickens, but I travel around too much.

You're going to fail a few times, because that is the only time you actually learn something.

When we speak to God, we call it prayer; when God speaks back, we call it psychosis!

As addictive and satisfying as my first tattoo, Wolf’s Remedy left me craving more.

I don't think I've ever tried to be anything other than a weirdo.

The finest souls are those that have the most variety and suppleness.

You may be sure that in this new international system, the American citizen will count for precious little.

We got on American Bandstand, where kids would dance to a record and then rate it. We called ourselves Tom and Jerry. I was Jerry.
