Even as a child I had a strong relationship with yearning and desire. And loss. Those things spoke to me.

With every character, you alter, you can’t be attached to your own identity.

It was very natural for me to want to disappear into the theatre, I am really very shy.

Acting runs through my blood. There is some sort of creative desire to express myself and I would need that outlet. Otherwise I would be a nightmare to live with

I want to be tested beyond my comfort zone. I don't want to be safe if it is more interesting to be dangerous.

I just feel like I'm in the world right now. There have been times when I haven't felt in the world, when I haven't cared whether I was going to be here or not, so my relationship with being on the earth was probably not as intense. And right now, there's an intensity - I want to be here.

I try never to be governed by fear; that's how I choose things.
