I love things that are old and beautiful and tell a story, even if it's a sad one.

Grief is like a moving river, so that's what I mean by it's always changing. It's a strange thing to say because I'm at heart an optimistic person, but I would say in some ways it just gets worse. It's just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone.

I am a huge Leonard Cohen person.

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.

For this relay there was a little more pressure because it's the 200, you have to make sure you swim it smart. The 100 was more about energy.

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

I just came in this morning with one goal; to make it back tonight, so I'm very excited for the final.
