It [preparing for a role] is just like studying for a test and making the test easy; it makes it a lot of fun, especially when people enjoy it.

I am always training because I love it.

I like to break down barriers and I think that Hollywood is doing the same thing over and over. I want to do something new and say, "Let's evolve as artists!"

I think there's a part in each one of us that wants the impossible to happen, and that's what surprises are.

The guys I date always want to test my strength and wrestle around. By the end, they're drenched in sweat.

Well you know, I have the utmost respect for people like Angelina Jolie and Zoe Saldana in 'Colombiana.

It's a very big deal to me to remain the same person because I know all of this is going to be gone one day and I'm just going to have myself.
