If we stop defining each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by who we are we can all be freer. And this is what HeforShe is about. It’s about freedom.

People say things to me like, 'It's really cool that you don't go out and get drunk all the time and go to clubs.' I appreciate that, but I'm kind of an introverted kind of person just by nature.

Oh my God, no, no chance, no chance. That [kissing her co-stars]s not in my contract!

I really believe that you have to earn things. I don't feel comfortable unless I have worked really hard.

I find the whole concept of being 'sexy' embarrassing and confusing. If I do a photo-shoot, people desperately want to change me - dye my hair blonder, pluck my eyebrows, give me a fringe. Then there's the choice of clothes. I know everyone wants a picture of me in a mini-skirt. But that's not me.

When people call me a role model it puts the fear of god into me, because I feel like I'm destined to fail.

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