By the time I turned 18, I moved into a little chalet of my own and felt very grown-up.

I've always turned my anger inwards towards self-destruction.

I want to live for my truth, my reality, what is important to me and what I’m passionate about. I love acting, and I love being able to tell a story, but working with another human being who is struggling with the same thing that I’ve struggled with, and guiding them towards hope and redemption - it’s you know it’s a triumph, it’s a story of the triumph of the human spirit.

There are hundreds of thousands of kids walking around with a sleeping monster inside them.

My mother went to a school called 'The Club of the Three Wise Monkeys'. And my grandmother, my father's mother, had a gold charm for her made with the speak no, see no, hear no evil monkeys. And I was fascinated by that charm. I'd sit in my mother's lap and play with it all the time.

If I stay in action, I won't live in fear.

There's a fine line between genius and insanity, as we all know.
