As soon as I stopped trying to control everything that came out of my mouth and every picture that came out, that's when I became so much happier.

For most actors, it's such a struggle to get work. Once they have it, they feel that there's an enormous amount of pressure on them to make it work, and have everyone love them.

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.

It's funny when you can actually relate to the fans on a human level and it happens all the time. People assume that's impossible. So when that happens it's a cool thing.

It's not like I sit around watching my movies again and again, but I've never quite believed actors when they say they don't watch themselves.

I have brothers, and that so-called boyish quality was something that I was deathly self-conscious about when I was younger.

The sad thing is that I feel so boring because 'Twilight' is literally how every conversation I have these days begins - whether it's someone I'm meeting for the first time or someone I just haven't seen in a while. The first thing I want to say to them is, 'It's insane! And, as a person, I can't do anything!'
