I am tired of women playing action heroes like men, because they are not men. But sometimes they are written like men.

It's a very, very rare moment when another actor hurts you. I mean, that's not normal.

I grew up in Oregon so I grew up around reservations, so I've always kind of had this knowledge. Not a tremendous amount of knowledge, but an outsider's knowledge of what reservation life was like.

People don't realize that I started in musical theater. That's where my roots are.

Had you told me 20 years ago this would be my life, I'd have gone "What?" and then stuck out my tongue to all the girls that were mean to me.

When you take on a TV show, you give trust to people that you really just met.

Im a bit insane when it comes to doing my own stunts and getting down and dirty. Its fun, you know? Its things I wouldnt normally do in my real life, so when I go to work and get to beat people up and shoot guns and get waterboarded, those are things I find completely interesting.
