I was never overexposed and work never became a chore. I was a very good girl wanting to do a good job.

Stubborn people get themselves in a lot of trouble, but they also get things done.

I don't know when acting came to be more about awards than about the work. Judging who's better than the other person shouldn't be part of why we're doing this job. It should be about entertaining people.

I like shows or films or books that have messages but don't beat people over the head with them.

You gain and lose different things in different mediums or different sectors of different mediums. There are liberties you get on tiny indie films in terms of not having to be designed toward a marketing demographic.

My sexuality is something I'm completely comfortable with and open about. There's a lot of prejudice toward us but the more people talk about it, the less of a big deal it will be. And that will be better for everyone.

There are very few films or plays or anything about really happy people with perfect lives.
