I was skeptical about doing Texas Chainsaw at first because it's such a cult classic. I'd seen some of the sequels and was not a fan of those.

Being willing to suffer often brings great rewards.

You've got to love this business. You have to be able to take rejection.

I'm not squeamish at all. As a child I dragged a dead squirrel home on my skateboard and cut it open and tried to look at its brain.

Smile… Even when your life is at its worst, you never know when you’ll meet the one who takes your breath away!

I was never one of those girls who dreamt of Prince Charming. To piss off my mom, I would say, 'I'm never having kids and I'm going to be a fabulously rich old maid with cute butlers and dogs.'

Being someone I'm not for a period of time and loving every minute of being in someone else's skin.

I've been involved with sports my whole life, which made clothes and makeup and handbags not that important as a kid. I just didn't care.

If I got a dollar every time someone told me to name my future kid 'Batmo' I'd almost have enough to pay for therapy for a kid named Batmo.

There is so much pressure to look a certain way in this town. But it's nice to have a little meat on you, and I hope I inspire women to appreciate their muscular calves.

I think I could drink my own blood. Is that weird?

Was then not all sorrow in time, all self-torment and fear in time? Were not all difficulties and evil in the world conquered as soon as one conquered time, as soon as one dispelled time?

To be inspired is great, but to inspire is an honor.

If you like the fairy tales, visit the old towns!

If losers can exploit what their adversaries teach them, yes, losers can become winners in the long term.

But what are facts, really, except things we’ve already proven? There could be lots of almost-facts out there, still waiting for proof.

There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer.

Don’t indulge in any unnecessary, sophisticated moves

The wise man always throws himself on the side of his assailants. It is more his interest than it is theirs to find his weak point.

This dying forces you to look into yourself. And in this, compassion is the only way. Love is the only way.

And if you have five seconds to spare, I'll tell you the story of my life".
