You know how theres always the one girl in drama school who can cry at the drop of a hat? She has that emotional well she can tap into in a second? Im not that girl. It takes a lot to get me to that place.

The reason why I like theater is because it's a long journey, and no matter what role you play, we are all in it together.

Shakespeare teaches you how to act. You come out of this process as a better actor. It's just the nature of the words he writes.

I wanted to become an actor and I knew that if I was really going to do it, I needed the training. I was not one of those people that was like, "I got it." I was like, "No, I don't have it yet. I need work. I need help fixing myself."

When I'm in Los Angeles, sometimes I hesitate saying that I'm an actor because people are like, "Of course you are." And I'm like "No, not, 'Of course I am.'"

I wasn't even a theater kid in high school. I studied classical piano, and I ran track.

The way I work emotionally is: I don't ever try to cry. I try not to, which is what for me produces organic emotion.
