I feel like I've come out of this grown up, maybe because I live through the character vicariously and she grows up so much during the course of this story.

I loved getting to investigate the grey areas of morality.

Being on Twitter, live tweeting some of the episodes, I get direct feedback from people.

I feel like, as an adult, a lot of how you feel about yourself and what your inner workings are can be revealed in a sexual situation.

As an actor, you always look for things that will stretch you and that are different than you are, so that you can surprise yourself, and you want to surround yourself with the highest caliber of people that will make you look good.

Theater is such a different ballgame than film. And that's really why I stayed in film, because I really love the reality of connecting with your own feelings, and really putting that across in a realistic way. In film, the smallest muscular movements in your face, that are produced just by sheer feelings, you're not controlling them in anyway, can be seen by people in the audience because your face is sometimes, frighteningly, 40 feet wide!

When a really cute dog shows up on your doorstep, you can't be like, Yeah, no. You're like, Oh, yay, puppy!
