The actors I admire are character actors.

There was a point - when I was a kid - where I said I wanted to be like Luke Skywalker, with blond hair and blue eyes. My mom right there told me to never be ashamed of who I am.

Where I come from, there were traditions with my race and whenever you faced a curve in life, there was always a tradition.

A couple of girls I've signed autographs for have just cried or broken out into tears.

On the film sets of 'New Moon' and 'Eclipse,' I feel safe. It's like you're in the center of the hurricane, but outside is where it starts to get chaotic.

I just want to do really good work.

It's just amazing to do something that's part of a pop culture phenomenon.
