I can understand in some sense, having played the character, how unimaginably frustrating it is for people to tell you that you can't love who you love, because you ain't going to change it, and so they have to get out of your way

I think that you love who you love, and there are people who you love that people aren't going to understand why, and that sort of doesn't really matter.

I really like to just jump in a truck with your backpack and just drive and go somewhere.

I was never the girl who walked down the centre of the hallway snapping people out of her way.

What I'd really like to do is do a film or two a year and then do theater in New York the rest of the year.

There's no changing your mind about whom you love. That's part of the tough thing about being in love - it's sort of undeniable.

To me, a great love story is a great love story, and it doesn't matter what gender is involved.
