Every movie I make I find kind of excruciating. I get a lot back from it, but I feel like I'm kind of always working at the edge of my ability. I guess that's what I'm looking for when I go to work. I am trying to become the edge.

I mean, I am still such the-good-girl. I want everybody to like me. I want everybody to be happy.

Because whatever I feel inside, it has a place to go. It just saves me over and over and over again.

I've come to learn that the choices I labor over and go back and forth about and ask a million people for their opinions and make lists about those are always the wrong choices.

I don't think things through very often - I don't project into the future about how a situation will turn out.

I had always been kind of obsessed with making a home of my own and was always drawing rooms that I wanted to live in, down to pictures on the wall and the faces that would be in the photographs.

There was a weird, innate kind of understanding between me and Christina (Ricci). A psychic told us we were sisters in a past life.
