I'm very mature for my age, but I'm also innocent in a lot of ways.

I never read comics as a kid. I guess I was lazy and watched cartoons instead.

I get to do all these crazy things in the movies. I'm a pretty chilled out person, actually... a very mellow person.

It's important to me that I don't get trapped in the whole teen scene, because I feel that you can get lost in those kind of movies, and they aren't really about the actors; they're about the selling of the concept, and how much money it makes.

I can't wait to have kids one day. I want to have kids and a farm with lots of animals on a lake.

As an actress, there's a lot of waiting. You wait for a script to come in that you want to do. You get to a point where you decide that if you want good things to be made, you're going to have to start making them yourself as an actress. You can't just wait around for it. But you can also just enjoy the breaks, and use them to kind of refuel. I've been working so long at this point that I don't mind the breaks. I think they make me better, actually.

I just don't want to be the damsel in distress. I'll scream on the balcony, but you've got to let me do a little action here.
