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.

You're not gonna give somebody more money if they don't ask for it.

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.

I've never considered failure.

I never imagined myself as an actor who would be in films. I always only thought of myself being in a play or a musical.

I never studied acting, yet the first time I auditioned and did a cold reading, I surprised everyone for my honesty and limpidity. They told me I could play any role because I have no walls, I don’t put anything between me and the character I have to play.

I can name a LOT of things that taste better than skinny feels… Potatoes! Bread!
