Any obsession is dangerous.

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

I think reincarnation is possible. Hopefully, we all get recycled.

Our society doesn't want to help girls like that [in Black Snake Moan]. They just want to use them.

I think I'm better at playing difficult than I am at being normal. And to me that's something I'm working on now. I'm not really that difficult or complex a person, so it's interesting to me that it's just so much harder for me to play an everygirl.

When you're doing something where you really like the material, it doesn't matter what medium it's in.

I guess I'm a workaholic!
