Families in real life don't tend to resolve things neatly.

I guess I do have a childlike sense of fun, and although I still have my dark days, I'm generally an optimistic person. The way things have gone in my life, sure, I could have been a bitter person. But I just find bitter people really un-fun, you know? And who wants to be that person?

I just think everything is a learning experience and every moment that you have that actually feels good inside of your heart is an absolute blessing and a gift.

Don't show your flaws.

I used to look in the mirror and feel shame, I look in the mirror now and I absolutely love myself.

I think I’m moody because I’m a woman. I can ask any man in this room, like women are just inherently like, moody or hormonal people. I don’t know how men deal with it. I praise them.

And people say it all the time: 'You're a celebrity.' No, I'm an actor. I'm a producer. I'm a director. I'm a toad. I'm roadkill. I'm anything but a celebrity.
