I think I'm an abstinence symbol. If I take my shirt off, people will not have babies.

I am actually going to two therapists right now. I don't know, I actually feel like therapy has just made me more uncomfortable.

The joy of acting for me is to be able to experience emotions in a safe environment. You can't scream and cry in the street because everybody will look. If you do it on a movie set, you get applauded.

If I get no sleep the night before a show, I feel that performance is the best one.

I can't watch myself in interviews. I feel like I look like a wreck. My mom is always calling me and going, 'Stop fidgeting,' and it's like, 'You have no idea what it's like, Mom.'

Working in the arts, you see people who come from terrible circumstances and who, for whatever reason, have incredible talent. But of course, with that great talent comes some guilt because, if you come from circumstances that don't encourage it, it can be really confusing.

The ideal way to approach a character is to find something in yourself that relates in some way.
