I'm so grateful that I was raised by a mother who really instilled in me that my moral compass and achievements all had to come from a real place that had nothing to do with my beauty or how I looked. That was very big for her.

I start to lose my mind if I'm not working on something, like breaking my back on something.

Even while starting out I took things very seriously; I wasn't the sort of kid that would do a doll commercial or do a series for Nickelodeon. They asked me to do silly things, and I wasn't a silly kid.

I don't think that there's much hiding that actors can do. If you're doing good work, you're showing a part of yourself to someone.

Maybe I'm completely different from everyone else.

Maybe I'm completely different from everyone else. There are a lot of girls who can't wait to get married and plan their wedding a long time in advance. I'm not like that. I do want to start a family at some point, but I don't know when.

Appreciate what you've got and follow your heart and you're all good. Don't over-complicate things.
