You don't need to give reasons for the things you do- you just have to do what you want. And sometimes the thing that seems messed up to everyone else is what's right for you. You have to do it and not be ashamed of it.

With every project, you feel like you're trying to find your place to vent. For any actor, that's typically the feeling that drives you to do it.

I'm not sure if I'm most happy when I'm comfortable and content or when I'm pushing myself to the limits. There are such different versions of happy, and I really appreciate both.

Beauty is more than just shining for others. You don’t need to have the perfect face to be beautiful. Being ugly or beautiful is a matter of energy, and true beauty comes from the heart.

I just happened to have enough time to be able to take other parts between those first few Twilight films. But it wasn't about proving to people that I had something else to give.

I want to be an actor, I am just not very comfortable talking about myself.

I am thrilled. I love movies. I don't have those nagging, regretful feelings about either of them, it is a miracle.
