There are movies where we are interested in seeing people's lives without agreeing with what they're doing.

I think that we, women, are so often defined by who our husbands are and what our husbands do. And it's time for that to end.

I don't mean to criticize anyone in any way that I wouldn't criticize myself. I think people should have fun, and have a good time, and enjoy the luck that we have to be lazy and dwell in consumerism. But I think that it's a balance. And our job as actors is empathy.

There's so much else to do in the world. To just be interested in doing films would limit my life.

I'd rather be smart than a movie star.

It doesn't matter if you mean to do the right thing - if you only do bad things. You need to learn how to do right things. Doing is what affects people.

I've always tried to separate my looks from all the other aspects of myself. I think girls are taught so much to focus on their looks that they tend to have their personality and intelligence develop slower than boys
