Loving other people starts with loving ourselves and accepting ourselves.

I remember having been with this book [Into the Forest] for a long time, and I remember the moment that she [Patricia Rozema] sent me the script and what it was like to read it for the first time. I just was so blown away by how she managed to capture the story and their relationship to each other, and the nuances of that.

I guess I notice things as a woman just in the way I'm spoken to.

Judging people you don't know for things you don't understand is just really stupid.

There’s obviously a lot of tragedy in comedy; I really enjoy the paradox of what a really good comedy is.

There are a lot of things I love about acting and one of the things I love the most is, here you are taking words off a page, working with someone you might have met just a week before, and somehow you're creating a moment that separates itself from space and time. You feel an incredible rush when you have that moment with another actor. You can feel it bounce off one another. Every take you do can reveal different things that were hiding. And things outside the story get revealed to you, too. It's an incredible way to work and to experience a story.

I think a lot of the time in films, men get roles where they create their own destiny and women are just tools, supporters for that.
