My heart is in helping people and in the less materialistic side of things, but there's the side of me that's more polished.

I eventually want to come back to Canada, to disappear, have nobody know me, and just be a writer and do what I want to do.

I don't know if any of you feel this way, but it's like eventually, you see a woman come on screen and you go, "Oh, thank God!" You just sort of need a break from all this testosterone, which happened, I think, in one of my films, The Hurt Locker. I was in it for like five minutes, and people were like, "You were in that movie!" And I was like, "Well, kind of." And they were like, "No, you were!" 'Cause they needed a woman!

I consider acting a day job - it's not my dream; it's not my be-all, end-all.

The world is full of opportunities, and I want to try as many as I possibly can.

I love getting older! I really believe that a woman doesn't reach her peak until her 40s.

I'm very picky when it comes to men. I come across a man who I'm really attracted to about once every five years.
