I have to save the parts of my soul that are left for the good roles and the true love.

I have to just go in and audition, like everyone else, and fight my way to the top.

I'm just auditioning. I've only gotten directly offered two or three movies, ever. I don't have the luxury of being able to say no a lot, and I don't really have the luxury of just getting to pick and choose certain things.

I wouldn't play the normal girl. I don't think that that's interesting or realistic, as far as how human beings really are.

All the genres are so blended nowadays. There are lots of comedies out there that are more realistic than dramas, and some dramas out there that are so broad and wacky that they don't even pass for a broad, wacky comedy.

People always assume that things are just handed to me, but I've had to prove myself, every inch of the way.

Certain roles, I just won't invest in. I'll go in and audition, but I might not spend five hours trying to figure out what the character is really about or go so deep into it. I might just learn the lines and go in and try my best because I know it's not safe for me to love the character or to fall in love with the idea of the role.
