I'm not attempting to be a role model but I accept that roles I've played put me in that position. I don't feel a huge responsibility as an actress to put my young fan base first.

Everything that I have ever hoped to accomplish, she has done and done better than anyone I have ever seen.

I had a dream. And it came true.

I think I was raised in a solidly upper-middle class family who had really strong values and excess was not one of the things that my family put up with.

I would never have gotten married if it weren't for him. You have to want to be married to someone. You have to feel that reciprocated. Marriage for marriage's sake doesn't make any sense to me, and I found someone with whom I could put my money where my mouth is, I guess.

I think it is so much more fun to discover film in the movie theatre when there is so much anticipation about the movie.

I'd like to be a working actor. It sounds really trite, but there really are no small parts, only small actors. And so as long as I'm a working actor, I can improve.
