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

People can tell you what to do, but ultimately, we're all going to die, so how do you want to live?

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

I think at some stage, I would love to have another child. I would love to settle into a relationship that was really important to me. I actually am not good at the balance at that.
