You could do a hundred projects and still not have the fans that are there for Twilight.

Even in high school, I had friends that I didn't know were gay until years later. I'd find out on Facebook or something and be like, 'Oh, that explains some things,' or 'Wow, no wonder they were so cool.'

I love having candles, especially when you get downtime. I could just pass out seeing the flame flicker with the lights off.

When you do a movie, it's like going on a journey. It's really like the director is the captain of the ship, and that energy, everybody feels.

[My favorite scientist] Michio Kaku. He deals with wormholes. Check him out. He's great.

I was actually away in Africa doing 'Generation Kill' while everyone was auditioning for Twilight. They all had, like, five different auditions: I was so lucky that I came back from Africa just in time and the actor who was playing Emmett fell through, lucky for me!

I finish so many books it's amazing. I'm also doing Rosetta Stone, learning some French.
