When I was 20, I thought I was 30 - but I was so far from it. When you're young, you want everything to happen now. As you mature, you can look back and see all the great things you achieved with time and patience.

I think, as an artist, whether you're making people laugh or cry or be frustrated or excited - the fact that you're generating some sort of emotion out of an audience is, to me, worth it.

A lot of people loved to hate my character on 24. I want to be the character people love to love.

I tend to stay out of the public eye a little, compared to some of my peers.

I do try and stay away from the stereotype and getting typecast.

To sit through a film where you're just unmotivated to be interested in a character is probably the worst thing that could ever happen.

I don't look in the mirror and think that I have flaws. I actually look in the mirror and see me. I see a lot of different characters and a lot of different things.
