I'm actually very spiritual.

I need to be able to write a poem after every film and to kind of cleanse myself from the character because for about three months or so, I'm constantly living through the character's eyes.

We fall in love forever many times, and many times we die.

I would much rather sit, dimmed by inattention, and study the atmosphere and the silence and dance between people, but often times I’m not offered this privilege. The necessity for isolation, and the striving for popularity is the only contradiction I find in being a writer and an actress.

Our nature as sensitive beings is far too complex to break apart, re-examine and reshape in a poem.

I feel every medium of art needs to heal to some degree. It can't live in it's own void, and this came from my earliest experiences as a young refugee.

We're renting the space that we call Earth, so we may as well just go for it.
