I think mainly it's an optics thing: to be able to visualize a woman in a position of power. It's going to be wonderful for all of us in every field.

I am more a teenager than anyone else I know. One minute I feel really adult and the next minute I say, 'Let's play hide-and-seek.'

I wonder how people decided that women were supposed to shave their legs and armpits

Everything you think of that keeps you occupied is a friend.

I really hate being self-conscious—and being conscious of being self-conscious

My mom devotes so much of her time toward me. She's an artist, and my father is a doctor. I've been brought up in what you might call a pretty conventional family.

Basically I have, like, five really close friends - girls and guys. I like being friends with both because you can do different things with both.
