You can't just sit around and watch life pass you by. You have to keep dreaming. Sonny taught me that, and I intend to do him proud.

I am the girl who everyone said was never going anywhere. I guess I shocked a few people.

Until you're ready to look foolish, you'll never have the possibility of being great.

Would you look at that body language? Legs crossed towards each other. That is an unequivocal sex invite.

Meryl Streep is an acting machine in the same sense that a shark is a killing machine.

I want to be really special, I want to be really good. It's not enough to be famous for me. Famous is empty so quickly, it's not what people think it is. It's wonderful, but if you're famous and you feel that you're an artist inside and everyone thinks you're just a celebrity, it's really painful.

I'm not gonna become Ann Bancroft or Meryl Streep and have all the burden that being a "serious actress" entails.
