I wasn't the most popular kid in school.

There is something inherently valuable about being a misfit. It's not to say that every person who has artistic talent was a social outcast, but there is definitely a value for identifying yourself differently and being proud that you are different.

I think I'm always very naïve. With 'Kill Your Darlings' and 'Horns', I'm like, "Why wouldn't everybody love this?" But I guess it's going to divide people in some ways. But if you're willing to go with it and suspend your disbelief, you're going to get something amazing and something unlike anything else.

I just have this fear that I'll get on stage and there'll be that brief moment of adrenalin and I'll forget my line.

The happiest I ever am is spending time with a group of really good friends. That's all I aspire to in life, really.

I definitely think the idea of friend zone is just men going, 'This woman won't have sex with me.'

The most wonderful thing I hear is people coming up and saying 'Thank you for my childhood', which still blows my mind but is very sweet.
