We as human beings are slightly masochistic. Everybody is ridden with insecurities and they manifest themselves in different ways, whether you're a pleaser, you're mean, you're super-duper sweet and get walked on, or you're a gossip that talks about someone else.

Anyone who is gossiping is just insecure about that person they're gossiping about.

All girls hit that phase where they like the bad boy. I grew out of that really young and I have a wonderful guy in my life who's not a bad boy at all. I like the satiric, consistent nice guy.

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.

Here's why I like geek culture: People like what they like because they like it. They're not trying to fit into any mainstream likes or dislikes.

I'll always be figuring out what parts I want to play, because I want to play all parts. I'm a very hungry actress.
