It's only when you risk failure that you discover things. When you play it safe, you're not expressing the utmost of your human experience.

I always love to learn new things. That's the reason I like being an actor.

My immediate family was always very supportive. It was my own fear of the rest of the world not accepting me, the rest of our society not accepting my wish to be an actor.

I'm interested in generating work for myself. I have trouble with this waiting-for-the-phone-to-ring lifestyle, especially after drama school, which was so creatively fulfilling.

On a very practical level, I've learned the importance of circulation socks for planes. I had this awful experience of getting off a flight to go to an event and my feet had swelled. Try getting into heels then! So you put on the socks for the flight, then you can wear whatever heels you want.

What I've learned from myself is that I don't have to be anybody else. Myself is good enough.
