I've never wanted to grow up too fast. I wanted to wear a sports bra until I was 22! ... The allure of being sexy never really held any excitement for me. I've never been in a terrible rush to be seen as a woman.

I love fashion. I think it's so important, because it's how you show yourself to the world.

I don't want the fear of failure to stop me from doing what I really care about.

People sometimes talk about me as being a brand, having a strategy and whatever else. I wish. Seriously. I wish I had it together enough to have a strategy. But it's so instinctual. It usually comes down to two things: the person I'm working with - the director is really important to me - and a line in a script.

I have to kind of like switch heads. Sometimes I manage it seamlessly, and other times I feel rather all over the place. I feel a bit schizophrenic, like I have a split personality.

I don't know anything about American history or presidents. I don't know what tailgating is! I've never been to an Olive Garden!

I think the actresses who are really successful are comfortable in their own skins and still look human.
