As soon as you start claiming you can be someone that you are not, you are crazy.

Don't let other people's conversations about what you're doing or you've done be part of your own conversation.

I really don't think about my career, in terms of planning it out and what any role does for me.

Females want other females to be really strong, so there are a whole lot of scripts that are basically just male parts renamed as a girl.

I don’t think I would ever have been able to be an actress had I not started at nine years old. I would have been the last person to stand up and say, ‘I’d like to star in the play.’

I put a lot of weight in what I do, and you and I can talk to each other in a certain way because that's how people interact, but I don't really know how to talk to the entire world.

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.
