Why would I cry over a boy? I would never waste my tears on a boy. Why waste your tears on someone who makes you cry?

When you get older, you feel better about yourself. You're not worried what other people think about you, in general. You just get more comfortable in your skin.

I didn't go to Cirque Lodge for alcohol abuse or drug abuse.

I think everyone wants for their kids the good things that they had.

I was a very extrovert kid. It felt normal to me to act. I always went to regular schools. I've never been catty or a prima donna, so I never had problems. I always had my seat at the cafeteria when I came back from acting.

Boys frustrate me. I hate all their indirect messages, I hate game playing. Do you like me or don't you? Just tell me so I can get over you.

The performances that I love are ones like Gena Rowlands in 'A Woman Under the Influence,' where women are allowed to be messy and imperfect. It's that kind of woman that has always inspired me to seek roles that are a little out of the box. I just haven't always had the opportunity to do them.
