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.

An actor gives voice to the many multitudes that we all contain. That's why we love the movies, why we love TV shows: we watch different people portray an aspect of ourselves, maybe even one we don't like.

I am actually very well-organized. All I need to do is open my closet and just choose. But, you see, although I carry many different choices with me, I always end up wearing a tank top, jeans and sneakers.

I was so sensitive and touchy in a way that my character would never be. I was so protective and defensive of young girls, and sex in general.

I think it's the idea that beauty could be power, and that with power comes immortality, and with power comes control, and all of these other things are blocking her heart.

If you look at the actual movies that I've done, the whole struggle is to get to that point, so it's not something that you just have so easy . . . But it's okay. It doesn't bother me. I've done okay so far.

I'm also human so I have days when I look in the mirror and go, "All right . . . Things are definitely changing." I can see that.
