I challenge myself to take at least one fashion risk a day, otherwise I get stuck.

There are some things that have to wait and that can't just happen right now.

That balance of love for your work and love in your life is an interesting thing.

I just told the whole truth and that felt really incredible and really scary.

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.

Viola Davis keeps saying this movie should be called The Big Responsibility instead of The Help, because there were so many groups of people that you wanna do right by. You want to do right by Southerners and the African-American community and the readers of the book and the people that grew up with domestics and the people who worked as domestics. There's a million different groups that you're trying to please and satisfy that you're worried about not loving what comes across onscreen.

I was mostly into comedies, growing up. That still will always be my favorite thing.
