A lot of times, it gets weird when some guy is playing your dad. It feels weird to you. It feels like they're forcing sentiment. It's disgusting.

I just really am trying, trying, all the time. But I like to be scared. I love to suddenly feel out of control.

I push myself as hard as I can. Sometimes that can be painful and stressful but inthe end it's worth the price... I like to play characters that I can draw from in my own life. I've invested so much of my life into my work that I almost don't have any choice.

Women inevitably have to work a little bit harder to be heard. Hollywood is disgustingly sexist. It's crazy.

I've actually always been interested in following a character more long term, but the only place to really do that as an actor is on a TV series.

I think what I've come to now is, that fear is good; it's what life is about. You need to be afraid because fear gives you the strength to carry on important tasks.

My family are amazing. I had like, the perfect upbringing. It sucks for people like Lindsey [Lohan], but it's not her fault she's so off the rails.
