When I was teeny tiny, I definitely had a voice that didn't quite match the way I looked at five.

I did have wonderful things to draw from, from my own experience and also just from friends and people I'd gone to school with who were very much immersed in this world right now.

All I really want to do is someday be in a western. If I could be on a horse with a rifle, I would be a really happy camper.

The flight back and forth to LA has just started to feel like a commute, I think because all the jobs are jobs that I love doing so much, and it's such a great challenge to be holding on to all these different parts and to have to be in different mediums.

Theresa Rebeck's writing is so scarily funny. I just love how unapologetic she is with her writing: she doesn't try to make her characters likeable or heroic, she just really makes them human. Hopefully, the audience is able to love them in the end - or have whatever feelings that they want to have about all of them - but I love that she doesn't have that agenda. That is something that, as an actress, was really appealing to me; to just get to be in this group of people who are complicated and very human.

You want to feel like people are hiring you because they want to work with you, not because of who your parents are.

I really like when I read a scene and it scares me. That makes me excited.
