There are two ways to be cool: One is to be disinterested and make it seem like you must be doing something much more interesting than everybody else if you are this disinterested. The other is to be extremely interested. You are not trying to please anyone, but you are really invested are really focused.

I want roles that challenge people to question where they are in life.

I don't think there are that many parts I could say unequivocally "I would not play that," but there's lots of parts I read and I think, "I don't really want to do that. I don't really think that's how women act."

Having an education is invaluable.

I'm still trying to figure out what the right line is between myself and the people I play. Sometimes I go too far one way or too far the other.

The real test will be having a family; when I have a family you have to come home, you have to eat dinner with your kids.

Being a mother has absolutely forced me. You have to write things down and have systems for all of it. And then you set up systems and you realize they don't work.
