When you eat pure food that isn't genetically modified, your physical and mental state does improve and it's worth the effort to make that happen.

Acting wasn't even in my world at all. My oldest sister worked at 'Glamour' magazine and said I should model, but I had no interest.

I do think this is where television is going, and I think that it's awesome to be a part of a show like this because we are these pioneers into this new medium. And it's working. When you look at the success of House of Cards and Arrested Development, which I love, this is how people are watching television now. It's pretty cool to be a part of this whole thing.

I keep my center by really making sure I am nourished and taking care of my body. I cook all of my own food and always make sure I am eating healthy, nourishing, comforting foods. I feel derailed when I don't do this.

In any character I ever play, whether she's good or bad or whatever, my most important thing is heart.

People in general have a preconceived idea of what prison is, from seeing documentaries or whatever.

I get to wake up and do what I love every day and I don't take that for granted. I feel grateful for it every day.
