You have to play the character in the best way you know how and do what you need to do in order to bring that character to life and not worry about the millions of people that you may be disappointing!

I have been so deeply, profoundly lucky to have friends in my life that have always just loved me exactly as I am no matter what time period I'm in.

Sometimes I definitely shut people out. I can be that sort of girlfriend who crosses her arms, shakes her head and says, "Nope, I'm not telling you what's wrong. I'm fine."

I more remember the periods of time when I wasn't getting any auditions. That's more what I find painful in memory; that feeling of not even getting the chance to try and be rejected.

I really like grammar. And spelling. I was a spelling-bee kid. I'm hard-core about grammar.

Success to me is my friends and family are healthy and happy and I feel good about myself at the end of the night and I can sleep at night.

Anything that can be perfect is very damaging for my psyche.
