I was such a nerd. It just wasn't something I would have wanted. And I didn't want to act like an adult.

Of course I didn't have a boyfriend then. I didn't even have a camp boyfriend then [at age of 13].

Children change a lot in terms of personality. Camaraderie that you feel with somebody might not be there a year later.

Whereas when I was a teenager, other teenagers didn't want anything to do with me. It was even like that in college to a degree. People of that age don't want anything to do with their childhood, because they had put away childish things, and they're trying to distance themselves.

I've always really loved stories told from the point of view of children.

I was very aware of being younger than everybody on set.

If you can affect someone when they're young, you are in their heart forever.
