When I go into a pitch room and I'm pitching something with a writing partner, everybody tends to look at the guy, even if I'm doing a lot of the talking.

I totally love my job, and I wake up every day basically thinking about how can I do my job better. It never feels like a job. It's hard, and it's exhausting sometimes, but it never feels like - I would do this even if they didn't pay me to do it. That's a pretty amazing feeling.

I think what's so attractive about acting is that you get to live several lifetimes in one.

For some reason, I have a very strange conception of time. I am constantly hovering at some overview, more macro.

So writing became a way to get to act in things that I thought were meaningful, and hopefully write stronger roles for other women.

Human beings are flawed and complicated and messy.

I feel like I'm a much better person when I'm developing my imagination and my innocence and my vulnerability. I like that version of me better than the version where I'm just working on my analytical mind.
