I believe in following your instincts with the people that you like and who you like to be with.

One of the great thing about New York is the neighborhood - you go for your walk in the morning and you know your dry cleaning lady, you know the guy in your coffee shop - that's your neighborhood and I love that.

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 went to college in Ohio, at Ohio University, and I graduated two years ago.

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 can only pay my electric bill for my last two years on my acting.

But at school, I wasn't athletic, and if you're not athlete in high school, it's kind of hard to find your place, so play practice seemed perfect, especially if you were as uncoordinated as I was.
