I want to be able to create characters for as long as I can and I want to tell stories for as long as I can but unfortunately I'm not given those opportunities because I'm often boxed into the former category...

It requires bravery to do something no one else around you is doing.

I can't be a part of the problem. I hate the idea of a label just as much as anyone else but I'm with who I'm with, I love who I love and I'm if not a better actress than I was yesterday and my personal life should have no effect on that. I think that the injustice of people staying in the closet is more than I can bear with a clear conscience and I couldn't sleep at night if I was a part of that problem, if I was part of the lies.

I had always been a reader and a skeptic, so when I was old enough to break away from organized religion, it just came naturally.

It's my job in Hollywood to find roles where I get to be a character not a bathing suit.

I don't feel like millions of people are wrong because they love who they love or they were born how they were born.

My favorite go-to modeling move was called "Be hungry." That was it. You just stand there, and be hungry. And that's all I have to say about the modeling industry.
