Before 'Twilight,' occasionally I would get the 'Hey are you that girl from that movie?' but no one knew my first and last name. The fans of the saga are amazing, and it's very flattering.

I think we learn some of the greatest lessons in life from animals, whether it's love, suffering, or the value of silence.

I have friends come over and we read plays out loud and I make paintings and I just do things all the time just so I don't ever feel like I'm sitting around.

I've always loved music and felt connected to it, but was too afraid to explore that avenue.

I think it's time we take a step back and recognize that while we are hurting our animals, we are hurting each other, and we are hurting our planet.

Tina Fey could run this country before Sarah Palin could!

We have such an amazing future ahead of us.
