I'm very competitive, I think.

I was 16 or something. [My aunt] broadened my understanding of what women could be like and do and that there's a big world out there. So she had a huge impact on me.

It's okay if it takes two or three years for something really good to come along, but I don't want to wait ten years for something great to come along.

Once I fix what kids watch, I'll be moving on to everything else.

One thing is a fairly simple and straightforward thing. I don't long to direct. I really want to get some good parts.

I don't know how in the twenty-first century we can possibly justify not showing girls things that they can aspire to, and at the same time, how can we possibly be showing boys this narrow vision of what women are and what they can be.

Because I had some roles that resonated with women, I immediately noticed that there were far more male characters than female characters in what we're showing little kids in the 21st century, which was stunning to me. But I couldn't find anybody else who noticed.
