Doing films as an actor, you spend maybe 40 percent of the year doing your chosen profession. If you are on a successful TV show, you spend 80 percent of your year doing the thing you love.

Remember who you are. It's really okay to be who you are.

For years, I hated myself. I covered the mirrors in my house. I literally couldn't have a mirror in my room.

I think I am naturally attracted to things that are a little bit out of this world.

My dream role would probably be a psycho killer, because the whole thing I love about movies is that you get to do things you could never do in real life, and that would be my way of vicariously experiencing being a psycho killer. Also, it's incredibly romantic.

If I hadn't gone into acting, I would have been one of those weird runaways on Hollywood Boulevard. No, it'd be uglier. I'd probably be dead.

Recently, I've really responded to books that bring the magic of childhood back to us as adults.
