There has to be this balance of reality for a woman. I don't want to play women who just serve a purpose for the script.

I've always idolized Amy Poehler, because I think she's the best of the best as far as female comedy.

I have a lot of responsibilities, but I don't think I've grown up.

Everybody just wants to be loved, and nobody feels loved enough in high school.

It breaks my heart to know that millions of gay Americans still can’t marry the one they love, and I can. That makes no sense.

Romanian movies are not made the same as American movies are, only because it's newer there. For instance, cigarettes, over there, are much more prominent, and Americans aren't used to that.

The only thing I consciously avoid is playing the victim. I think women are portrayed as the victim in so many things, and I really like women with strength - although I feel now I may have gone overboard by playing so many strong, sassy women.
