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.

But I'm glad I'm not one of those actresses who is just so ready to open up for everyone.

Something happened to me and I became really successful at something at a young age, and that stunts you in every other aspect of your life because you feel like that's what you're good at and so that's what you need to stay in.

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

I've realized how little sleep I actually need.

Everyone always says, 'Kristen got 'Panic Room' because she looks like Jodie Foster.' But it was actually Nicole Kidman who was supposed to play my mother.

It almost makes the secrets more important, those few things you actually do choose to keep to yourself.
