Ultimately, you're left with the people you love and who love you- everything else fades into oblivion.

Forget the past. You can never predict what the future is going to be. Live for the moment.

Refuse to let your circumstances make you bitter. Do what you must to make them better.

You're not anyone in America unless you're on TV.

I do research. I do emotional sort of Method work. Somehow it’s a huge mishmash of things that becomes my own acting process and my own way of navigating through something. But ultimately the desire is to be honest, and for that truth to bleed through into your work and onto the screen.

I want to be with people I really like. I don't want to be working on things with people that I'm not happy to be there [with].

I think if you have someone to love and someone who loves you, that's the greatest beauty secret.
