I look at someone like Kathryn Bigelow, and I have so much admiration. She's playing in the boy's sandpit, and winning.

As a child, I was on my own two feet emotionally.

I love being physical, but I am extreme either way. I can be superfit. And then I can be really lazy and ignore everything.

As a teenager I was clinically depressed. Although I had lots of friends, I found those years very difficult.

Freedom isn't free at all, that it comes with the highest of costs. The cost of blood.

There's a perceived inverse relation between looks and talent. Look at Charlize Theron - she made herself ugly for 'Monster' and suddenly everyone said 'she's a genius.' It shouldn't be like that.

It's a feeling without a lid, of what you would do, physically, verbally, to protect the one thing that is your greatest love.
