The biggest misconception is probably that I don't have my head in the right place.

Everyone has highs and lows that they have to learn from, but every morning I start off with a good head on my shoulders, saying to myself, 'It's going to be a good day!'.

I am happy being able to play roles with people my age because once you do something really mature there is no turning back.

So many people around me would say they cared for the wrong reasons. A lot of people were pulling from me, taking from me and not giving.

It's funny because being comedic and happy and lighthearted is who I am as a person, so they're easier emotions for me to connect with. The challenge is accessing pain, angst, depression. . . It's more exciting because it gives me somewhere to go and allows me to tap into a part of myself that everyone can relate to.

I want to act and direct like Jodie Foster. I admire her because she went to college and she is still doing the same thing.

I have been informed that he has started false allegations regarding myself and the cause of my illness. It angers me to see that my own father would stoop to such a level.
