You should never step outside of your life and look at it like it’s this malleable thing you can shape so that people view it a certain way.

I think to be a good director you have to be a good person and you have to care about people.

I think it's ridiculous that you need to look a certain way to be conventionally pretty.

Acting is such a personal thing, which is weird because at the same time it's not. It's for the consumption of other people. But in terms of creative outlets and expressing yourself, it's just the most extreme version of that that I've ever found. It's like running, it's exertion.

My brother's a grip. My mom's a scriptwriter. My dad's a director. So it's like, at heart, I'm a below-the-line girl.

It's this weird thing that I always feel like I have to gauge in myself, like, "Don't come on too strong because you won't get your way."

I know who I am. I have a very strong sense of self.
