If a woman is determined, she will get what she wants because we are very determined creatures.

I want to play a character I've never been before-a crazy serial killer like Charlize Theron in Monster. I'd love to have to shave my head.

Not to sound rude, but [acting] is stupid. Everybody's like "How can you remain with a level head?". And I'm like "Why would I ever get cocky? I'm not saving anybody's life. There are doctors who save lives and firemen who run into burning buildings. I'm making movies. It's stupid."

Being inappropriate comes easy to me.

I just don't like that you can either be ugly and smart or pretty and dumb, or ugly and nice or pretty and mean.

I'm always terrified before every movie because I haven't found her [the character], and I don't get it. [Without acting, I'd have] become a nurse.

When I'm not working, I am the laziest person. I can literally lie on a couch and watch television for 15 hours.
